Veterans fear VA cuts threaten benefits in San Diego area
San Diego County veterans voiced alarm as the Trump administration targets VA downsizing amid plans to cut about 83,000 federal jobs. They warn fewer staff will delay claims and reduce access to care, especially in mental health, with examples from Ian Mooney and Carlos Perez Gomez. Local protests and veteran groups urge preserving resources while noting long wait times and staffing shortages chronic since 2014.
