Graham introduces himself as an Air Force veteran (2002-2008), VFW National Legislative Committee member, and Veterans Advisory Board member. He describes the Valone Initiative claims clinic and his work with Councilmember Caban, Wong, and Lee.
Thank you, Chair Murano.
I don't really have any testimony.
I just came back from D.C.
I sit on VFW's National Legislative Committee.
And, yeah, it's been pretty busy, so I just have a bunch of talking points.
Yeah, this also I do have to say I had the pleasure of meeting finally Councilwoman or Chair Kavan a few weeks ago in her office during our claims clinic for the Flown Veterans Initiative.
Councilman Phil Wong, I've known him for a while, same as Councilwoman Linda Lee, so it's great to see you all up on the days.
Yeah, there's a lot to take in here.
As somebody, I know you guys, well, pretty much everybody in the room there, they know I wear a lot of different caps within the Veterans Foreign Wars from local to the state, the national level.
