Veterans
To support our Veterans, Mayor Katjana Ballantyne
- Increased staff in our Veterans Office, which brought back the Memorial Day Parade
- Relaunched the Veterans Commission on Monuments
- Strengthened programming that serves veterans
- Are suing the Trump administration to preserve funding for Veterans’ benefits
- Resolve to repay veterans by helping guide them, not only to veterans benefits, but to every city service to which they are entitled.
- Acknowledge a sacred responsibility to ensure that our veterans have reliable and comprehensive access to all of the specialized benefits they are entitled to receive as just compensation for their service. At the same time, veterans are also residents, eligible for a wide range of other city services and programs.
