Standout for Veterans & All Federal Workers!

Stand with us at the entrance to the regional headquarters of the VA Central Western Massachusetts Healthcare System to support our veterans and all federal workers! VA workers are the backbone of the VA system, ensuring veterans get the highly specialized care and support they earned. About a third of all federal workers are veterans adversely affected by the federal government’s job slashing/restructuring. Important parking info: Park in the VA *Visitor* lot (not the employees lot) or, if you have a sticker or are a Veteran, park in Look Park. We are in a high traffic area at a busy light, with veterans and employees turning into the VA driveway. Our standouts let VA staff know that we support them, while we protest DOGE/Project 2025 cuts and the abrupt cancellation of union contracts. We won’t sit by idly while the Trump regime works to privatize the VA, which would hollow out health care and support tailored for the special needs of our veterans. Join us to raise our voices against the chaos and destruction of the current regime. Join the many veterans and their family members who aren't on board with the "cruelty as entertainment" behavior of Trump and the GOP. A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. We expect hosts to ensure all participants in your event uphold this commitment. We recommend all participants review our safety and security resource before your event: https://indivisi.org/safety. Winter weather alert: If it's a snow day, we will cancel our standout that day.
