Vets for Freedom is an American political advocacy organization founded in 2006 by veterans of the Iraq and Afghan wars, with connections to Republican Party leaders.[1] The group was initially founded as a 527 group.[1][2]
During the 2006 election, the group supported Senator Joseph Lieberman, who ran for reelection as an independent after losing the Democratic nomination.[1] The group spent about $4.1 million on campaign ads in the 2008 election,[3] mostly on ads promoting the "surge" of U.S. troops in the Iraq War in 2007.[4]
