April 2025 Impact: Legion active on Capitol Hill

So far in the new Congress, eight testimonies have been delivered, including one on mounting claims-processing delays.

The American Legion’s legislative team in Washington, D.C., has been active with the new Congress, submitting eight testimonies through April. In one Statement for the Record, the Legion laid out some troubling numbers about claims-processing delays and compensation and pension examination issues.

Meanwhile, American Legion Baseball teams are getting registered for the centennial season of the program, state qualifiers for the National Oratorical Contest have been confirmed, and more than 19,000 have now been trained to prevent veteran suicide through the Legion’s Be the One program.
