I think it is the best chance.

Where are the teeth to enforce that?

I think, for many of us, for us not to take an aggressive approach on currency manipulation is a nonstarter.

The state of BIE education is abysmal.

We were very pleased that Under Secretary Hickey instituted it; really went back and looked and saw that those claims for MST-related conditions were being processed at a lower rate for PTSD.

Those are the women who are actually accessing the system. I have a feeling it might be a higher percentage.

I think just within VA, because of the small percent and the statistical minority of women, only about 7 percent out of the six million veterans that VA treats, it is always difficult and a challenge with women veterans.

Now, Secretary McDonald has said that he would like to eliminate homelessness in veterans by 2015.

We cannot let that happen. This is what we came to Congress to solve, at least for many of us, hopefully, Republicans and Democrats, so that we are not the first generation in American history to leave the next one worse off.

Jungle Warfare training is an important capability which the United States has not had since the closure of the Jungle Training School in Panama.
