“This bill, as I said before, and as Mrs. Halvorson said very distinctly and very eloquently, is about disclosure, accountability, transparency. The survivors need to know what is going on.

The VA is pursuing that. And we will get to that. But right now, right now, as men and women are dying in action, their survivors need to know what is going on.”
