Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and appreciate the witnesses here today. I have kind of a really important issue...

The number one issue I am hearing from our veterans right now is this issue, call centers.

the Federal Government is about 5,000 miles away from my State, and they often don't understand us.

I am just hopeful that you guys can bring back call centers to have better service.
