  The VERITAS array of 12-m atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes in southern
Arizona began full-scale operations in 2007, and is one of the world's
most-sensitive detectors of astrophysical VHE (E>100 GeV) gamma rays.
Approximately 50 blazars are known to emit VHE photons, and observations of
blazars are a major focus of the VERITAS Collaboration. Nearly 2000 hours have
been devoted to this program and ~130 blazars have already been observed with
the array, in most cases with the deepest-ever VHE exposure. These observations
have resulted in 21 detections, including 10 VHE discoveries. Recent highlights
of the VERITAS blazar observation program, and the collaboration's long-term
blazar observation strategy, are presented.
