With Honor is proud to have Foreign Policy join us as our official media partner for this forum.
The program will feature four discussions showcasing the leadership of military veterans serving in Congress and on the global stage, along with the public release of a landmark Gallup–With Honor Institute study on public trust in veterans in elected office.
At a moment of heightened geopolitical complexity and domestic division, this Forum offers a strategically important forum for candid dialogue across sectors and perspectives—building the ideas and relationships essential to strengthening both our democracy and global security.
