In today’s video we talk about the VA funding gridlock of $360 billion as we close them on the November 2024 election and what that means for millions of veterans and their pay. The funding that is at risk includes VA hospital upgrades, VA disability claim pay increases for 2025, toxic exposure, expansions such as burn pits, jet, fuel, etc. and much more.
#veteranbenefits #vadisabilitybenefits
All of this needs to be removed from the bill and get down to taking care of the veterans and need to cut the upper leadership in the VA.
How come they send billions to other countries and they balk at taking care of veterans and our poor?
This is why single issue bills should be a thing. All of these omnibus bills are bs
Agreed, that’s the only way all the pork will pass is if the bills are thousands of pages
Yep filled with purposeful bill busters smh
We as veterans need to have a March on Washington!! And demand what we earned from voluntary service to our country!! We need to ensure politics have no control over VA funding…. PERIOD!!
Thanks, Jordan! Let’s all make our voices heard this November!
Cheers Vanessa
When I went to Army, boot camp we were told by old timers that if you’re injured in service you go on sick call and DOCUMENT whatever was wrong with you. Some of my service connected juries were reported to a lesser degree from the ridicule some of the vets went through. I learned the hard way, if an injury wasn’t documented it never happened. In my 1st attempt it took two years to go from no % to 10% S/C disability. After fighting another 17 years I went from 10% to 70% S/C rating. Then it took several more years to go from 70% to 100% S/C disability. This was about 2014. Then it took another year before I received my P/T (permanent & Total) letter from VA.
I remember VA hiring medical contractors to perform C&P exams on vets due to the back log of vets filing service connected claims. Honestly, some of those contracted medical doctors didn’t understand the VA system and I firmly believe to this day that vets were delayed in receiving their full rating in a prompt time frame.
Well done, those old timers were definitely looking out
when you are discharge your medical officer who did the phyical will give yo the final result on a official form that is the form you will use to file your claim best to go to a vso in order to so not the va dr anyway you will go to a c and p exam the examiner will send the report and other documentation to rating folks they look up your conditions via the cfr cfr 38
It's funny it took me 400 days to get an 80% . Then, another 5 months to get a 90% and the most important when I got surgery with the V.A hospital I got 100% with Permanent and Total.
I work for the VA in the Radiology Dept and you are 100% correct
I am going into Radiology soon any tips bro
@@duanen2337 complete bs. My VA Dr says it's not true. I've had zero issues getting community care appointments.
I served 15 years in the army, now the found I have baseline skin cancer, the doctor the ENT doctor told me to just wait to get it removed because they had one doctor to do the procedure and since it was slow growing I could wait for later. I told him I wanted it removed they gave me an appointment to later cancel it because the doctor went on vacation. cancer still there!
All my treatment appointments are 40 + days out...
Can you talk about project 2025 and how it will effect the veterans and if it is a good or bad thing
It’s bad, really bad
Project 2025 is election year propaganda, don't fall for it.
Just read it. Bottom of page 649 into the top of 650. Redoing the rating schedule to take our disability.
Page 651 talks about removing the folks running it and installing political appointees to, and I quote, “ensure complete political control.”
They are also abolishing whistleblower protections.
Summary: install goons to gut benefits and ensure no one can complain internally.
Probably thinking okay internet whoever guy. Full of crap.
I’ve give. You the page numbers go to the website. Migrate to the document. Select policy.
If your interest in everything they plan to do to the VA, and it is not good, it all starts on page 641.
I’ll vote for if Hillary’s actual pants suit to ensure Project 2025 isn’t realized. I don’t mean Hillary. I mean I would cast a vote for her freaking pants suit if they wheeled that thing out and were like, “we present our nominee.
Project 2025 is irrelevant. President Trump has his own agenda, and has called P2025 extreme and unacceptable. That doesn't stop the left from pushing it as propaganda.
Bad bad, especially future claims or claims being revisited by VA.
Anyone that would go to the VA for an abortion or a sex change would be insane anyway. They don’t perform either one of those at all, let alone on a regular basis……. So he is vetoing a nothing burger. Also, no ER can turn you away if you walk in the front door. They can say they don’t have a bed and board you in the ER. Or if you are in an ambulance they can divert you if they have no beds and then have to pay for your outside ER visit.
They arent allowed to legally however they did. Yes that is illegal but just like criminals the va doesn't always follow the law.
They may not turn you away, but they will let you sit there & die. Won’t even take your temperature.
That's a personal choice, not a veteran issue. It shouldn't be allowed in the Bill. FJB.
He didnt say what kind of hospital it was. Private hospitals are allowed to turn you away from the ER if you are in "stable" condition. If not, and you dont have a certain type of accepted insurance, all they have to do is to stablize you before sending you on your way. "Stable Contion", only means that your vital signs are with in acceptable limits.
Nothing in our budget is a priority to these people unless it's for Ukraine.
Or Israel
@@joebiggs135or illegals.
Damn keep the thread going everyones a priority except american citizens smfh
Dude this is the GOP it has nothing to do with Dems. Project 2025 Plans; Part of it is banning concurrent receipt. Meaning they want to eliminate the 50% VA benefit. So, if you retire and have a VA benefit over 50%, which means you get both. They want that to stop. It's either VA or pension. Not both. So screw you for doing 20 or more, and your knees don't work. Your back is jacked, and you got blown up once or twice. Screw you, pension or VA . Not both. Republicans are really looking out for the troops.... 🚫
no ukraine is a priority also if not WW2 will be here again and we have to get involved with our folks so its better now to give them help so that don't happen also we give them our old munitions so then we have to hire folks to prepare more updated munitions so its a win win pay in cash now or possible live's later take your pick
What turned me off to the VA: I was sick, sick enough to be admitted to the hospital. My dad & my wife brought me to the va hospital. I couldn’t walk, so they rolled me in on a wheel chair. I had no clue. I just had my dd214 & nothing else. They had me fill out some papers, then let me sit there for hours. They didn’t even take my temperature. It wasn’t like they were busy. There weren’t many people in the waiting room. I told my dad to get out of there. They were going to let me die. Went to another hospital & due to my pulse not being detectable, I was admitted immediately.
Same thing here, went to a VA senior Dr in wound care and he couldn't be bothered to.look at my leg, 4 days later he sent a VA paid van to pick me up for emergency admit.still here 1.5 yrs later.can't walk.
@i hear you i love you god bless you with peace love and recoverymthom4615
They need to pass the Major Richard Star Act
Don’t forget about those who are retiring. So, you have spots open which causes scheduling restrictions on veterans and this funding absolutely makes sense but executive pay increases are a joke
I am a former County Veteran Service Officer from Ohio. I left in 2013. I remember being at large conferences that VA Representatives would come and speak. 2007 through 2013 multiple times a year at these conferences THE VA STATED THE EXACT SAME THING ABOUT BEING BEHIND WITH CLAIMS, NOT ENOUGH EMPLOYEES TO GET THE JOB DONE, telling
Us to please be patient that they there were hiring as many claims examiners as they could, please be patient as it could take a year or longer to get these employees trained up to par. Doesn’t this sound familiar? We were told that every year and multiple times a year at conferences. You had about 500 County Veteran Service Officers go crazy on the VA rep speaking. Now this was supposed to be just relative to our VA Regional Offices issues. Come on? We all know this is and has been a Nationwide issue Each and every year. I have been out of the loop since I took a retirement due to my service connection disabilities in 2013. And each and every year I am just so upset to see the VA saying the exact same damn thing as they did almost 20 years ago. Oh, we are behind because we need to hire more employees. Oh, ok? That’s the reason huh? It’s like nobody can hold them accountable and say enough is enough with your B.S. I worked in County Government my entire adult life. 2 different agencies and of course one being County Veteran Services. When I became a CVSO I said, where else would you have county representatives be expected to complete all the paperwork and documentation for a Federal agency? I think you’d be hard pressed to find this scenario under any other circumstances.
Fellow vet. Thanks for pointing this out about Project 2025. If you want to keep your benefits, vote blue. 💙💙💙
Biden 2024
That is disgusting what they did to that vet. I work for the VA and they do not care for vets or employees. It is disgusting. Not all I mean the management. Terrible, all they want is their bonuses. It is sad
I do as well. I went off in the town hall meeting about how they stole that money, how we are under paid, and how the VA hire us veterans. The best way for us to be hired at the VA is through environmental services. All of those that stole that PACT money need to be fired.
Veterans and all of the usa poor are in real troubled we are being exterminated
These things should not be a part of this anyway. There are other places to take care of those things.
Project 2025, do a video on how that would affect veterans and disability.
It's major everyone on the net is talking about it. They are going to screw the military where nobody will join. Vets are talking about it on Reddit. I'd leave a link but YT will delete it.
Just read it. Bottom of page 649 into the top of 650. Redoing the rating schedule to take our disability.
Look I have nothing against the pride people. But the federal government should not be paying for anything related to it. Also, should not be doing other nonessential service related things.
Good video
Its crazy that not wanting to waste VA resources on these gender transition issues causes the President to threaten to veto the funding. Nice report Jordan
There is a whole lot more to this video than gender transition. Abortion is healthcare.
@@Kenbot2 then they should be sent to an outside clinic. Taxpayers shouldn't foot the bill for abortions
It's crazy that Republicans would add these restrictions to healthcare for veterans.
@@Kenbot2 if it isn't life threatening then no it is elective.
@@user-jc2yi8nz6p I can agree with that. But it is not between me and you it is between the woman and her doctor that’s it our opinion doesn’t matter.
All you Veteran's remember this, 3 billion for the VA, 66 Billion for illegal immigrants.
360 billion not 3 billion
I haven’t forgotten
It’s $360 billion for the VA. You’re not very informed just quick to attack a group. You probably don’t like
360 billion for the VA. A fact is still a fact even if doesn’t fit into your narrow, dogmatic view of reality.
Completely false!! Stop being a boot licker for Fox News!
I’m a little anxious, I ETS in March. My BDD opens in September. I’m gonna buy your services Jordan, I need help with all this. Right now just been trying to see the PA as much as possible. Hoping it works out, and I’ll get between 70-80 percent. 🙏
Aim for the sky, 100%PnT😊
Good work Andrew, confirming on MHS Genesis that you are indeed diagnosed with all the conditions you’re suffering from is the most important part of separating from the military
ALM told me I am a complex case and I was transferred to UTHealth!
Get rid of the VHA, the VBA doesn't even trust them, we can go community care
I think that’s a matter of opinion. I prefer the VA over community care. Community care is not always thorough and are in it for the money. Be cautious because the VA is not all bad. And no I don’t work for them. Veterans need to learn how to speak up and play a major role in their healthcare. There’s nothing wrong with voicing your opinion and expectations. But let’s stop bashing the VA as a whole. Nothing is perfect but the VA is there for the veterans. I’m sick of civilians trying to tell me about the VA. If you really dig deep some of them think veterans shouldn’t get these benefits. You have a lot of those people with that mentality working for the VA.
Yeah no
Horror horror horror
@@solomon7039 I agree with you about the basing of Va. I’m a Veteran and the ball has been dropped with my care at Va and community care has relieved my stress level. God bless us all🙏🏾💕😇
I don’t think ERs are allowed to turn anyone away by law.
Unfortunately I’ve heard multiple reports where it happened. Hopefully it’s more rare than it appears
@@vaclaimsacademy As a former trauma nurse, you absolutely CAN NOT be turned away in an ER.
We can never do enough for the LGBTQ Veterans community all 1% of them
Funny thing about being on a war footing for 20 plus years. Lots of service connected injuries
Jordon stick to VA Benefits NOT POLITICS.
i had a va physc come into my room while a inpatient at the va hosp whe was mean flat out mean no professionality whats so ever she wanted me out i went off on her and trust me i did i told her she has no authority to oust me but i gave her the ole texas two step only the primay doc can discharge me i know for no reason she did not like me another situation was i went to a shrink on my own to ask for and take a compentcy test did a brief interview with the shrink he goes the vba might turn down the request well he called me up and said the shrink who can conduct such a test turned it down and notated it in my medical record it is my suspicison that she did not want to work or or do the job she is being paid to do most employess are afirican american they are lazy anywa even the field service officer thinks am incompenten the va will steal your rightful benifits and give it to someone else therefore the va should be dismantle they are crooks period
So efficiency for the end user would mean significantly reducing executive bonuses and not putting money into lifestyle choices. Also the regime is seeking to disarm veterans by having the VA report veterans that need fiduciary assistance to the NICS as a flag to halt firearm purchases.
VFW has a way you to send your congressperson on the bills.
As long my va disability and military retirement is in my account on the 1st then the government is safe
Look up project 2025. They are trying to get rid of both
@@SabiraEvans Project 2025 is election year propaganda, don't fall for it.
Are BDD claims being taking that long as well 6-8 months to get a determination ?
Around 4 months for BDD claims right now
There isn’t anything wrong with the VA facility in Elpaso Texas they remodeled everything and it is attached to the old William Beaumont hospital that was totally revamped and added onto before building of the new William Beaumont hospital. Now there going to build a new clinic near the WBMH .
I also go to the El Paso VA. Very good quality care, I have no complaints, but it is hard getting benefits. I always informed service members to go to Sick Call and to photograph their records afterwards so that it can be easier to file a claim when they leave the military.
If you served you deserve!
@@user-ko1tm2yo4m nice to hear from someone from El Paso.
The suicide rate is on the rise for our brothers and sisters. That is far more important to me than what he is allegedly upset about. I'll do my part in reminding him in November. Unless Whoopi is running against him I will vote for his opponent.
If funding is an issue. Why the VA keep vuilding new building and infrastructure? They need to do better in managing the budget.
Just think about it. Every time this country has a financial problem. They go to some out side problem to use as a stall point. They have to remember we took a oath to the nation. Not there political views.
They are arguing over funding to help get beds and resources to help vets so that they don’t have to be turned away like that gentleman because of funding for elective surgeries and that is ridiculous. Him and others can’t get the services that they need and deserve because of peoples agendas.

👍
Depends on who sits in the oval office
Nah I don’t believe this I’ve seen information that most of budget have been passed.
DEIB is a JOKE!
Even if I got no benefit I would never vote democrat
Do you honestly believe Republicans want you to have the benefits you have now?😂😂😂
Convention of States folks! Lets pull the plug on Washington
T-2024
It will be over SOON!
It's going to Ukraine!!!!!!!
And Isreal
It's the Republicans who added these divisive issues to the VA funding bill. VA funding should be bipartisan.
Nobody cares about the alphabet mob etc. The military has one purpose and that’s to protect this country. All that other shit is irrelevant. Just my opinion.
Hello there. Random question.
Do you think this Project 2025 propaganda will affect VA disability ratings?
Currently researching an upcoming video for how a second president Trump term may realistically impact veterans as a whole and what to expect 👍
@@vaclaimsacademy Project 2025 is election year propaganda, don't fall for it.
None of this JB proposed changes sound like war injuries to me
How many billions do we send to other nations and on illegals. Let alone Ukraine
Imagine STILL voting for Biden after these last 3 1/2 years. That's a new type of stupid.
I will not vote for a felon who disrespects our veterans.
@@Dashdaddy1 that’s a bold face lie made up by the Russia Russia Russia crew . The “ laptop “ is Russian disinformation… “ my son died in Iraq “
You need to pull your head out of your butt and wake up . 6500 committing suicide and you don’t care if you even think about voting for him.
Increased jobs increased pay a real infrastructure bill record-breaking stock market to name a few things in the last 3 1/2 years not to mention how much inflation has been decreased. I think it’s been a pretty good 3 1/2 years. What is Trump done? well he’s definitely become a felon on 34 countswhy in the hell would anyone vote for a domestic terrorist?
Yeah vote for the guy who hates veterans, who when it was raining wouldn't even go see the dead soldiers in France. The same guy who wants you to goose step down Pennsylvania avenue so he can put his General Uniform on and you can kiss his ass.

I too will not vote for a convicted felon, judged by his peers.
Who incited a coup against our institutions and the peaceful transfer of power to the elected. And if your a Veteran the oath should mean something even when not on active duty, you are still in jurisdiction of the armed forces to be called up if necessary.
I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic;
This sounds like propaganda . I would fact check this one

Remember this in November. Vote Red
Red? Socialists are running?
We sure will, but there are some that claim "red" but push far right. They need to go.
why. replublicans literally cut everything not going to the wealthy.
They fix elections these days. Convention of States is our only hope.
And get no respect! Somebody said something about veterans being suckers and losers. Who dispected Gold Star vets?
How is anyone expected to believe what this guy says when 10 seconds down the line he changes his tune? He contridicts his own statements. I have been told by several brother and sister vets that VA Claims Academy has truth and money grubbing problems. Look it up.
Yes please look it up
VA Claims Academy has tons of good and free information and i believe they do a great service to the Veterans out there looking for answers trends and tips.
