Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made it clear: Veterans and military families are on the chopping block. They want to:
•    Fire 80,000 VA employees
•    Gut funding for mental health treatment and the Veteran Crisis Line
•    Slash Medicaid, SNAP benefits, and training programs
•    Sell off vital services to the highest bidder
But the momentum is on OUR side. Common Defense members from across the country have shared VA stories, rallied, and marched -- and we are just getting started! Just four weeks from today, Common Defense is mobilizing members to Washington, D.C. where we will let the administration know the VA is not for sale!

As you well know, we have a public health crisis brewing in our nation – a crisis perpetrated by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services. Secretary Kennedy is a danger to our nation. He’s a danger to our children, and we the American people are SICK OF IT.

WDC is excited to host a conversation with Caitlin Durkovich on the “Impact of Dismantling DHS.”

$20 Members | $25 non-members

Register here.

Caitlin Durkovich was Deputy Assistant to the President and Deputy Homeland Security Advisor for Resilience and Response in the Biden-Harris White House.

Most Americans associate the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with securing our borders, managing immigration, and preventing terrorism. But its mission is far more expansive and instrumental to how we lead our everyday lives. DHS has the largest retail presence of any Federal government agency, and its employees and offices are located in hundreds of communities across the country. DHS performs life saving missions, enhances our preparedness and response to the increasing number and intensity of climate events, and ensures the resilience of the infrastructure we depend on every day, including safeguarding cyberspace and defending our election infrastructure from bad actors. In the last few months, many of DHS’s critical roles have been terminated or scaled back.

Ms. Durkovich joins us to explain how the dismantling of one of the largest federal departments will impact our everyday lives and what we can do to strengthen our community resilience.

Come meet District 19 Senator Kramer and Delegates Crutchfield, Cullison and Stewart. This is your chance to hear – and be heard – about what happened in the recently completed legislative session. Find out about taxes, drug affordability, and many other issues.

This is free and open to the public. If you wish to receive a link to zoom you can register at: bit.ly/dclw-05-15-2025
