On April 5, MOAA will be Storming Capitol Hill to meet with legislators from every state to discuss two issues: sequestration cuts, which could have a direct effect on military readiness and pose a grave threat to national security, and the need to extend the Special Survivor Indemnity Allowance for 10 years to assist survivors affected by the $15,000 a year “widows tax.” (See “There’s a Storm Coming” for more information.)

MOAA is asking our supporters to help us further multiply our message by supporting our Thunderclap campaign through your social media accounts.

Participation is easy. If you have an account on Facebook or Twitter, visit MOAA’s Thunderclap page and click the “support with” buttons to share our message on your social media accounts. Signing up ensures that on April 5, the same day MOAA “stormers” meet with congressional leaders, Thunderclap automatically will post MOAA’s message on all of our supporters’ behalf at the same time, with a link to send a message to legislators, extending our reach virtually and amplifying our message to Congress.

We appreciate your support, and thank you for standing with our military!
