In this episode, we discuss the recent allocation of over $77 million in grants to expand 20 state veterans cemeteries nationwide, marking a significant milestone with the first-time inclusion of Alaska. This strategic funding initiative for fiscal year 2025 reflects VA's ongoing commitment to honoring veterans and their families over the long term.

Women veterans now enjoy direct access to gynecology care without referrals, and the CHAMPVA backlog has been completely cleared, dramatically improving access to family health coverage for over 900,000 individuals.
On the state level, we cover Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger's selection of retired Maj. Gen. Timothy Williams as the new Secretary of Veterans and Defense Affairs in Virginia, along with his wealth of experience leading the Virginia National Guard through critical support roles during COVID.
