About

 Resist&Persist is a dedicated veteran issue advocacy non-profit committed to amplifying the voices of those who have served our country. Founded on the belief that our veterans deserve unwavering support and robust representation, we work tirelessly to address the unique challenges they face, particularly within the current congressional landscape.

 

   ​At Resist&Persist, we strive to create a powerful coalition of veterans, advocates, and allies who actively engage with lawmakers to influence policy and drive meaningful change. Our mission is to ensure that veterans' needs are prioritized and their sacrifices are honored through concrete legislative actions.

We understand that the complexities of representing veteran issues in Congress require not only awareness but also a strategic approach to advocacy.

 

Your support is critical in getting the truth about Veteran Benefits, and all that entails, out to the public and our lawmakers.

Short term goals for donations enable Jay and his team to speak at rallies, protests, symposiums around the country, and other various outreach opportunities. This immediate monetary support amplifies the voices of those most vulnerable. Our team is dedicated to educating the general population and lawmakers about the pressing concerns veterans encounter, from healthcare access and mental health support to housing stability and employment opportunities. We believe that by fostering open dialogues and creating informed partnerships, we can encourage Congress to act decisively on behalf of the veteran community.

Sustainable vision for Resist&Persist is to provide immediate needs to the most vulnerable veterans.
