From Las Cruces, New Mexico: A press conference was held to address concerns of veterans. Funding and staffing for the VA were discussed, with a call to add resources rather than reduce them. The representative also advocated for a specific act that would allow certain veterans to receive full retirement pay.

This act has reportedly been blocked from a floor vote. Supporters, including veterans, were present at the event, showing their backing for the representative's efforts. Further information on the discussion and proposals is available from the source.
