From US Representative David Rouzer's weekly newsletter of May 31, 2026:
This past week the nation honored those who made the ultimate sacrifice to keep America free. In honor of all of our Veterans, I thought it would be timely to remind those who served of the resources available to them on behalf of a very grateful country. Also below are some highlights of Veterans who were honored in North Carolina’s 7th Congressional District.
As a Member of Congress, I believe we all should honor and support those who have served our great nation. I carefully review all legislation impacting Veterans’ benefits because servicemembers and all of our Veterans deserve our strongest support. I remain committed to serving Veterans and their families in North Carolina’s 7th Congressional District, and one of those ways is by helping them navigate the federal agencies for the services that are specifically made available to them. My office is available to provide assistance as needed so please take advantage of these resources."
