campaign for RP veterans equity act |
|
Washington: Building on the
momentum from successful hearings before the US House Veterans
Affairs Committee on February 15, the National Alliance for Filipino
Veterans Equity has launched a campaign nationwide for passage of
the Filipino Veterans Equity Act.
NAFVE brings
together organizations and individuals at local, state and national
levels in a coordinated national campaign to secure justice for the
Filipino veterans of World War II. Working with grass-roots
advocates around the country and professional staff and consultants
with years of experience in Washington, D.C., NAFVE constitutes an
unprecedented effort in both size and scope from a unified
Filipino-American community to right the historical wrong.
