Vet Voice Foundation

Our public lands are our common ground. When Sen. Mike Lee pushed to sell them off to billionaire developers, Veterans, ranchers, anglers, and everyday Americans stood together and stopped him. Because this land isn’t for sale—it’s part of who we are. And we’re not done fighting for it.

Native Americans have a profound history of military service. Chairman Emeritus Glenn Lodge (Chemehuevi Tribe & Army Special Forces Vet) spoke at Tuesday's Veterans for the Desert event about his family's legacy and how the land provides opportunity for all.

"It's a moral injury." Listen to Marine Corps veteran Nick Borrelli at our Veterans for the Desert Roundtable explain the deep, personal impact that selling off public lands would have on the veterans who sacrificed to defend them.

Thank you, @SenatorHeinrich, for always standing up for public lands and with veterans!

Steve Pearce is unfit to lead the BLM. By advancing his nomination, Senate Republicans chose oil & gas interests over the public lands veterans rely on for health and livelihoods. Veterans will remember this betrayal. 🇺🇸

Thank you, @SenatorHeinrich, for your leadership and for opposing Steve Pearce for BLM. You always have the well-being of veterans and our public lands front and center. Sadly, Sell-off Steve does not. energy.senate.gov/2026/3/heinric…

“So when Steve Pearce says, we do not even need most of this land, he's not just talking about acreage, he's talking about eliminating veterans' jobs,” says VVFND CEO Janessa Goldbeck. 1 in 5 BLM employees are vets, working as firefighters, conservation pros, and guides.

Is the President about to take the United States to war with Iran without Congress? @VetVoiceFound As U.S. military assets move toward the Persian Gulf, including a carrier strike group led by the USS Abraham Lincoln, serious legal questions arise under the War Powers Resolution and the U.S. Constitution. What does the law actually require, and when is congressional authorization mandatory? What is the War Powers Act of 1973? This matters for service members who could be sent into harm’s way. War powers are not abstract; they decide when and how this country goes to war. #military #news #war #iran #law
