If you supported SB 694 earlier — thank you. That mattered. But messages to committees and legislators do not reach the Governor. This step is critical to ensure your support is counted where it matters most.
SB 694 provides long-overdue consumer protections by prohibiting unaccredited actors from charging illegal fees for initial VA disability claims. It aligns California law with federal standards and protects veterans from predatory practices that steal earned benefits. This bill passed the Senate with bipartisan support because lawmakers understand a simple truth:
👉 Veterans should never have to pay to access the benefits they earned.
🗣 1SG Jeff Hawley, CAL EANGUS Legislative Chair, shared:
“As someone who is currently serving, this fight isn’t just about today’s veterans — it’s about protecting the future veterans I serve alongside every day. Supporting SB 694 means safeguarding the benefits we’ll all one day rely on.”
We’ve launched a final VoterVoice campaign specifically to the Governor’s office. Strong participation right now sends a clear message that California’s veteran community is paying attention — and expects action.
📣 And stay tuned — the new legislative year is already underway, and more veteran-focused bills will need early support very soon.
Let’s finish strong. 💪🇺🇸
