Eric Shinseki: “I would tell you... this has my highest priority. And I am going to drive this hard.”

Providing quality, safe, accessible health care for our veterans who have earned them is a core mission.

I expect our employees to provide the highest quality, safest care we can provide.

Congress should continue its oversight and hearings to stimulate VA and DoD to improve their policies and practices for MST care and claims compensation.

The President fully supports veterans and their families, and by providing them the care and benefits they have earned, we pay tribute to the sacrifices that veterans have made for this Nation.
