We must pass the Major Richard Star Act. This would ensure our combat-injured veterans receive their FULL retirement pay, closing the โWounded Warrior Taxโ loophole that has adversely affected veterans and their families for far too long.
Our veterans who have taken care of us, deserve to be taken care of 'by' us - and Iโm honored to vote for this bill on Veterans Day.

I was proud to vote YES in support of the Major Richard Star Act to protect Veteran benefits.

This Veterans Day, itโs worth remembering that thousands of brave Americans who were wounded in combat are still unfairly taxed on their retirement benefits.
But the Major Richard Star Act would end this tax and ensure they get the benefits theyโve earned!
Learn about how this bill will honor our veteransโ service and why I support itย ๏ฟผโฌ๏ธ

Mr. Speaker, why are House Republicans so focused on cutting veterans' benefits on VETERANS DAY!?

The Major Richard Star Act would be a historic victory for combat-injured veterans who have waited far too long for Congress to end the unfair โveteransโ taxโ on their earned retirement pay.
The AFL-CIO calls on Congress to pass a clean, standalone Major Richard Star Act.

โThey will say this is good for veterans while gutting the entire infrastructure for veterans care.โ I had the opportunity to ask @AOC her thoughts on the House Veterans Affairs Committee bringing TCAVA to the floor on VETERANS DAY and this was her response. To be clear, Republicans have also admitted that this bill is harmful to some veterans as well, most just wonโt say it publicly and theyโre towing the party line on their votes. The
Today, the House will vote on TCAVA and MRSA.
๐ซ on TCAVA
โ
on MRSA
This is what we need you to contact your Representative and demand they vote.
Republicans wonder why they got their asses kicked in the midterms then pull shit like this. Voting no on the discharge petition. #VeteransDay

Here's Primaried Crenshaw attacking veterans on veterans day. #VeteransDay2026 #VeteransDay #MajorStarAct @DanCrenshawTX
Letโs pass the Taking Care of Americaโs Veterans Act today.
Despite one single groupโs opposition. A useless, corrupt, irrelevant organization called the VFW.
Happy Veteranโs Day. Except to the leadership at VFW. You guys are traitors to veterans and their families.

This Veterans Day, let us honor the sacrifices and accomplishments of our nationโs veterans with more than just words.
Earlier this year, I was proud to stand with Five Borough Veterans to advocate for the Major Richard Star Act to ensure that combat-injured veterans receive the care and benefits they earned. Today, I urge my colleagues to join me and vote YES on the House floor to move this bill forward and deliver much-needed relief for our veterans.

Today, of ALL days, Congress is reportedly moving on two bills that will decide what our veterans get:
โ TCAVA would cut benefits for future veterans to pay for other programs.โจโ
The Major Richard Star Act would end 20 years of injustice and give combat-injured veterans their FULL earned benefits.
One bill keeps the promise. The other breaks it.
๐ Call NOW: 202-224-3121
โจAsk for your House Representative and tell them:
๐ด NO to benefit cuts. NO to TCAVA.โจ๐ข YES on the Major Richard Star Act.
It takes 2 minutes. They gave years. ๐๏ธ
Share this. Tag a veteran. Make the call.
