Donald Trump and his VA Secretary, Doug Collins, are union busting the VA to make it easier to privatize and gut care for my fellow veterans.
Care will get worse, especially for rural veterans who live far from private hospitals and doctor’s offices.

Corporate stock buybacks are shattering records, yet layoffs are happening at the fastest clip since the pandemic hit.
This is corporate power that has long been crushing small businesses, workers, and pretty much everybody.
They are gutting the VA, firing people recklessly, all to make it easier to privatize and outsource care.
And veterans will suffer.
This is a betrayal. [2/2]
The Trump Administration has made VA staffing shortages much worse.
VA's own internal watchdog just released a report showing that there's been a 50% increase in severe occupational staffing shortages VA-wide. [1/2]
People really suffered because of the big railroads' lust for profit at the expense of everything else and the swampy politicians in Washington who carry their water.
We need to pass my Railway Safety Act and get corporate money out of politics.
Costs are going up.
Donald Trump and Washington Republicans are failing at their most important and basic job.
A good news update from this story in June: @repsummerlee.bsky.social and I succeeded in getting the EPA to unfreeze some of these grants.
$500,000 is heading back home to make life better in our Upper Ohio River towns.
More about our successful push: deluzio.house.gov/media/press-...
I expect answers when I ask an agency basic oversight questions.
ICE has failed at transparency.
This Administration is attacking union workers and organized labor. That doesn't fly with me or our Western PA values.
Thanks to @cwaunion.bsky.social for inviting me to address their 80th National Convention to talk about how we fight back. Solidarity forever! ✊
We honor winners in America, not a bunch of oath-breaking, slaver, traitorous losers who tried to destroy the Union.
Giving them back their participation trophy is lame.
There's a connection between the Epstein Files and the way our economy's been rigged against hardworking people: it all comes back to corruption in Washington.
Let’s crush it.
D.C. politicians just killed the popular (and free!) IRS Direct File program, which saved hardworking people time and money.
The weakness and cowardice in the face of their corporate bosses is always there.

Rep. Chris Deluzio—a Navy Veteran from Western PA—gets it:
When you serve, you earn a promise. Benefits, support, and dignity.
Trump’s attacks on Veterans are a betrayal—and @deluzio.house.gov is fighting back.
#HonorOurVeterans
I'll keep holding this Administration's feet to the fire to answer basic questions about what they're doing in Western PA. That’s the constitutional oversight I was elected to do. [1/2]
I'm standing with my Co-Chairs of the Democratic Veterans Caucus, @pkryan.bsky.social & @reptedlieu.bsky.social, in the fight to stop this Administration's attacks on our fellow veterans and their hard-earned benefits. [2/2]
Every veteran who served wrote this country a blank check. In return, we make a sacred promise that our government will deliver the care and benefits they’ve earned when they come home.
I am a proud Navy & Iraq War veteran, and you better believe I take that promise seriously. [1/2]

- Team Deluzio
If President Trump and his team want to shirk paying the cost of war and gut the VA, they better get ready to deal with some angry veterans who don't take kindly to a draft dodger screwing them over. [2/3]
