The campaign is simple, and many of the thwarted terrorist attacks in the U.S. were stopped because everyday people alerted authorities to suspicious behavior.

In the meantime, we will have to pay for both facilities, everything will be doubled in cost?

I will say that the See Something, Say Something campaign is premised on something a little bit different than what you all just said.

Clearly, I am just doing basic math, you will not be able to serve as many veterans in the new facility as were served in the old facility?
