Veterans group urges troops to refuse illegal orders on a new billboard

https://www.actionnews5.com/2026/01/23/veterans-group-urges-troops-refuse-illegal-orders-new-billboard/

TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD/Gray News) — A veterans organization is asking troops to “refuse illegal orders” on a new billboard in Arizona.

The billboard can be seen along Interstate 10 in Tucson.

Veterans for Peace’s Tucson chapter said the billboard is meant to show support for Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., amid his lawsuit against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

The lawsuit stems from a video posted by Kelly and five other Democrats — all veterans of the armed services and intelligence community — in which they called on troops to uphold the Constitution and not to follow the Trump administration’s military directives if those directives were unlawful.
