Honoring Our Veterans

This Veterans Day, FAC proudly recognizes and honors the men and women among us who have served in the Armed Forces. Their courage, sacrifice, and devotion to protecting our freedoms deserve the deepest gratitude and respect.

Yet it is a shameful reality that some of those same heroes — individuals who risked their lives in service to this country — now find themselves ostracized and marginalized by the very government they once defended. Instead of being honored for their service, they are often subjected to exclusionary laws and restrictions that deny them the dignity, stability, and respect they’ve earned.

At the Florida Action Committee, we stand with our veterans in a commitment to ensuring that every person, regardless of past mistakes, is treated with fairness, compassion, and humanity. No one who has sacrificed for this nation should be made to feel like an outcast in the country they fought to protect.

To those who have served, Happy Veteran’s Day. Thank you for your past service to our country and your present service in fighting alongside us for the freedom and liberty this country promises. FAC hosts a Veterans Support Group that meets by phone on the fourth Tuesday of every month from 7:00–8:30 p.m. ET. All Veterans are invited to join the call by dialing 760-548-9898. The group is facilitated by Mike, who can be reached at 831-353-4500 for more information.

On this Day, and every day, we thank our veterans for their service, honor their sacrifices, and reaffirm our commitment to standing beside them in solidarity and support.
