CAL EANGUS is proud to announce our sponsorship and participation in the upcoming All Veterans Capitol Advocacy Day, hosted by the California State Commanders Veterans Council (CSCVC). This important event will take place on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, at the March Fong Eu Secretary of State Building in Sacramento.
Veterans from across California, representing a wide array of organizations, will come together to meet with state legislators and advocate for the issues that matter most to our community—education, healthcare, benefits, housing, and support for service members and their families.
“This is a powerful opportunity for our voices to be heard,” said CAL EANGUS President Josh J. Baker. “By coming together as a united front, we can make a real impact on the future of legislation that affects the lives of California’s National Guard and veterans.”
