Veterans are planning a massive rally in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere June 6 to protest cuts at the Department of Veterans Affairs and call for the protection of veterans’ benefits and jobs, which they say are being hurt by the Trump administration’s efforts to reduce the size of the federal government.
The Unite for Veterans, Unite for America rally, scheduled for the 81st anniversary of D-Day, aims to be a nonpartisan call to preserve veterans’ jobs and benefits and promote the protection of democratic principles, according to its organizers, the Unite for Veterans Coalition, a group of veterans from various advocacy organizations.
