Today is Veterans Day.
Georgia is home to more than 650,000 veterans, according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
For PeachPol, that means more than a ceremonial acknowledgment. Veterans are part of nearly every policy conversation we cover — health care, housing, employment, education, taxes and access to state services.
Georgia’s Department of Veterans Service helps connect veterans and their families with benefits including tax exemptions, license plates, education assistance and other support.
Today, the Capitol and state agencies are closed in observance of Veterans Day.
We’re grateful to the Georgians who served — and we’ll keep watching how state government serves them in return.
