I do not think any veteran, whatever the condition, should have to wait that long in any of our facilities, whether it is an emergency room or a clinic.

This is not a once and done, or whenever we have a crisis, we do. This is an ongoing set of looks at ourselves.
Providing quality, safe, accessible health care for our veterans who have earned them is a core mission.
As President Obama said veterans have done their duty and they ask nothing more than this country, does ours, that we uphold our sacred trust to all who have served, and we will.
No one who has served this Nation should ever find themselves living without care and without hope.
