You might have heard about the Big Beautiful Bill recently. The bill passed the Senate and heads to the House. But there's a LOT in this bill, and some sections will harm veterans who need support. IAVA stands with those who served, always. Tell your representatives to vote no.

Interviewed Coast Guard rescue swimmer Scott Ruskan about his work at Camp Mystic. He was quick to share the names of the others on his crew: Ian Hopper, Blair Ogujiofor and Seth Reeves. He also said the teenage camp counselors acted heroically. #TexasFloods #TexasStrong
