Jim Costa chose politics over patriotism this Veterans Day

November 10, 2025

As Californians prepare to honor America’s heroes this Veterans Day, we’re reminded that our service members deserve respect and reliable support. Jim Costa rejected that principle, choosing political games over paying and supporting the men and women who serve our nation. President Trump stepped in to ensure our heroes received their checks, even while Costa left them out to dry. 

“Our veterans and service members should never be used as political leverage. They deserve paychecks, support, and gratitude, not Jim Costa’s partisan games” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
