Summary
Multiple commission members thanked President Trump for the opportunity to serve, said they will work to represent spouses and families, and emphasized their lived experience as the basis for advocacy.
Several commission members thanked President Trump for establishing or enabling the commission and pledged to work on behalf of military spouses. One member said, "Thank you, mister president, for putting military families 1st," and others reiterated gratitude for the opportunity to represent spouses.
