About the Veterans and Military Families Caucus

The Democrats Abroad Veterans and Military Families (VMF) Caucus connects U.S. veterans, active duty and reserve service members, DoD civilians, and military-connected families, caregivers, and survivors living overseas, along with our allies and supporters. We advocate for the issues that matter to our community, support get-out-the-vote efforts among military-connected Americans abroad, and make sure our voices are heard within Democrats Abroad and across the party.

Founded in May 2019, we're part of a global network of Americans who believe this country has a sacred obligation to the people who serve it and to their loved ones.

Get Involved

Whether you're a veteran, a military family member, or someone who cares about these issues, there's a place for you here. Sign up for the Caucus, volunteer with us, and join us in standing up for democracy.

Take action with us on key issues for our military-connected community.
