Veterans need, want, and deserve timely decisions on their claims. Speed should not be the goal; accuracy and delivering benefits should be the main focus. We must NEVER sacrifice the quality of care or service for the speed of delivery.

Couldn't agree more, @deluzio.house.gov. VA shouldn't be dismantled, it should be strengthened. Privatization just shifts costs onto veterans and risks access to care. When every d...

For veterans' safety, it's imperative that VA never use AI as the final review tool for veterans' benefits. VA swore under oath today that a human will always complete the final review of a veteran's disability claim. We'll hold them to it.
Veterans served this country and fought for our freedom. Yet, veterans have less access to fertility care than Members of Congress—why? Listen to Georgette Kerr with American Society for Reproductive Medicine, addressing this reality at our IVF roundtable last month.
Veterans turn to the Veterans Readiness and Employment program when they're trying to rebuild their futures. They want stability and independence. They shouldn't face additional delays in achieving the future they dream of. We must improve and streamline the VR&E program today.
Veteran Ben Jeffrey shared his journey facing homelessness and now dedicates his life to lifting others out of homelessness. He set the scene for our discussion. Hear his full story here: youtu.be/xtkwFNmQuUc?...
When VA makes a mistake with a veteran's claim, that claim enters the appeals process, shifting the timeline for a veteran waiting on healthcare from months to years. A mistake costs a veteran time and, potentially, their health.
In case it wasn't clear, Mr. President, veterans don't want a vanity arch that will block the view of Arlington National Cemetery. We read their concerns. You should, too.
Trump and his VA Secretary are trying to strip veterans of the freedoms they fought for. Homeless veterans should not be forced into guardianships. These veterans aren’t without hope. They deserve care and services, not confinement and shame. This VA is deterring veterans from seeking VA care.
For years, veterans have been expressing the urgent need to end the 'wounded veteran tax'. We've heard them loud and clear. Their number one priority is our priority. We must pass the Major Richard Star Act.
It seems last week's VA witness had a hard time answering one simple question: Did the VASP program keep veterans in their homes and save them from foreclosure?

Part two: dragging Serbia’s alleged "pro-Western activist-intellectual crowd" for the usual: - “It’s not time yet” - “First, let’s take down this 🇷🇸 gov't” - “We’re pro-EU, but only on our terms” etc A special circle of hypocritical hell for the fensers: “It doesn’t matter, the people are to blame”👇

"I hope we don't get bombed now." Are we really letting people go on stage and imply that Jews are going to bomb them? Aside from the antisemitism, it doesn't make sense? Why would a group of people need blacklisting if they just bomb people who disagree?
