COMRADES! AUXILIARY! FRIENDS OF THE IOWA VFW!

URGENT ACTION ALERT!

We need YOU to call Representatives Hinson and Nunn TODAY!

Our National Legislative Committee has identified these two members as being on the fence supporting TCAVA.

Your Department Leadership have been and are on calls and meeting with our Legislative delegation - WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Ashley Hinson (2nd District): Phone (202) 225-2911

Zach Nunn (3rd District): Phone (202) 225-5476

If you have any questions please reach out to State HQ .

TCAVA has many terrific and long overdue bills in it. Most should've passed as stand alone bills.
Our primary issue with TCAVA is the funding mechanism!
WE DON'T CHARGE FUTURE VETERANS TO OFFSET OTHER BENEFITS! DON'T PASS WITH SEC. 108 IN THE BILL. FIND ANOTHER WAY TO PAY FOR THIS BILL.

Since its introduction in the fall of 2025, the firing squad illustration has become a recognizable symbol of the VFW's ongoing Honor The Contract campaign and was presented to the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs during VFW testimony last October. https://www.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2026/7/vfw-defends-longstanding-tradition-of-political-satire-while-opposing-cuts

Congress is trying to back veterans into a corner and take away benefits they already earned through service.

Veterans’ benefits are not handouts and they’re not there to balance the budget.

Tell Congress to back off Veterans earned benefits and Honor the Contract.

VFW Post 3519 has made the difficult decision to close the canteen business operations. At this time, we do not know what the future will hold regarding the canteen space or future operations.

What we do know is this:
VFW Post 3519 is NOT closing.
We repeat: VFW Post 3519 and its Auxiliary are NOT closing.

Our mission continues. We remain committed to supporting veterans, their families, our community, and the programs that make the VFW what it is.

The canteen was only one part of our organization.
We are, and always will be, a Veterans of Foreign Wars Post first.
The VFW is more than a bar. It is veterans helping veterans, community service, remembrance, patriotism, and fellowship.

We appreciate everyone who has supported the canteen over the years and ask for patience and support as we determine the next chapter for Post 3519.

Thank you,
VFW Post 3519 & Auxiliary

Last day for the Canteen well be 5/29/2026
