Georgia VFW Legislative Priorities
The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Department of Georgia is committed to ensuring that the voices of our state’s service members, veterans, family members, and the surviving spouses and orphans of the fallen are heard at every level of government. Advocacy is central to our mission! From health care and earned benefits to education, employment, and survivor support, Georgia VFW works to protect and strengthen the policies that directly impact those who served and those who still sacrifice.
Building upon the member-driven National Legislative Priorities, our state-level priorities reflect additional real challenges veterans and their family members uniquely face in Georgia.
Georgia VFW serves as the united voice of veterans across all 159 counties across the great State of Georgia, working tirelessly to ensure state and federal lawmakers keep their promises to those who served.
Beyond shaping policy, our legislative priorities serve as a call to action for every veteran and supporter in Georgia. Advocacy is not confined to the halls of the Capitol; it begins at the grassroots level, where local Posts and community members engage with their elected officials. By uniting our voices, sharing our stories, and standing firm on the issues that matter most, we ensure lawmakers understand that supporting veterans is not optional! It is a sacred obligation. Together, we can influence legislation that honors service, strengthens families, and builds a better future for all who wore the uniform.
