MVAA Director Love releases statement on Gov Whitmer signing FY25 budget

LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency (MVAA) Director Brian L. Love, issues a statement on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signing the fiscal year 2025 $82.5 billion budget.

"With Gov. Whitmer's signature to the FY 2025 budget, Michigan continues the tradition of investing in veterans, military service members, their families, nonprofit organizations and veteran support organizations such as the Michigan Veterans Coalition and the Michigan Association of County Veterans Counselors. This budget gives the Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency the opportunity to make a significant impact on homelessness and mental health among veterans, allowing them to build a successful life by connecting them to local, state and federal resources and support. I applaud the support of Gov. Whitmer and the Legislature for prioritizing the health, safety and future of Michigan veterans and their families."
