Step 1: Read the Letter to Rep. Banks office.

“Dear Rep. Jim Banks,

In November 2022, I began writing stories about injured military service members who have been abusively—and wrongfully—discharged by the Department of Defense (DOD). I quickly learned that countless numbers of service members have been stripped of their benefits, honors, and dignity.”

-J.M. Phelps, Investigative Journalist
