Join the Fight fter years of budget delays, partisan gridlock and access issues for veterans seeking benefits and health care, DAV’s fight is far from over. One of the most important pieces of our artillery is you—our vocal members and active grassroots supporters. Arm yourself for the coming battles by attending DAV’s Mid-Winter Conference Feb. 22–25 at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Va. There you’ll get the facts, visit your lawmakers on Capitol Hill and address your concerns as we work together to improve the treatment of veterans in this country. Stand beside National Commander Ron Hope as he delivers DAV’s Legislative Presentation to Congress. The support and direct action from Chapter and Department leaders from across the country make DAV such a strong leader among veterans’ service organizations. One of DAV’s top priorities has been advance funding for all of the VA’s programs and services. It is because of your efforts and support during last year’s Mid-Winter Conference that we have gained traction on this issue and seen passage of a portion of DAV’s Putting Veterans Funding First Act. Your participation in this annual event is critical and helps us better represent veterans. The Mid-Winter Conference agenda includes workshops and seminars to help bring you up to speed on our critical issues and efforts and can help guide you as you engage your fellow veterans back home. So plan to take part in one of the most crucial gatherings of DAV leaders from across the country. Join us as we march onward together, fighting for veterans’ rights and benefits. n A For more information, visit www.dav.org/events/2015-mid-winter-conference DAV Mid-Winter Conference, Feb. 22–25
