Concerned Veterans for America (CVA)

Who ???

I think this is just a libbie front group...

If I remember correctly the VFW and American Legion both backed Obama.

We all must remember there are all types who serve and therefore all types of vets. Not all of them are conservative.

“I think this is just a libbie front group...”

You’re probably right. Anything that starts with the word “concerned” concerns me.
Organizations that use that word are often liberal. The other word you need to watch is “guild.”

Actually I think this is a group that is affiliated with the existing VA.

While not stating it out right Trumps plan for reforming veterans care would, effectively, if I am reading it right, merge the VA health services into medicade/medicare. Think about it, if you are a veteran are you going to go to a doctor 150 miles a way in vet hospital or are you going to see one closer to home? If veterans can do that and use hospitals that accept medicare/medicade then who needs a veterans’ hospital? Trump’s plan would save millions of dollars and improve service but would put a lot of bureaucrats out of work and slash the size of government.

It would also mean that advocacy groups like the one in the article would be out of work

[Red Steel]

They appear to be aligned with the GOP-E or RINOs.

"Concerned Veterans for America (CVA) is a 501(c)(4) non-profit which seems to be funded almost entirely by the Koch brothers donor network."
