I think the expectation is that we are not credentialing--we are not allowing anyone to provide health care to our service members unless we have verified their credentials.
That 16 percent of the credentials of the healthcare professionals are never verified, never confirmed?
The military has an obligation to communicate with the families and the service member who have been injured or there has been a loss of life.
We are deeply troubled by the events. We are saddened by the loss of Danyelle's life. It was an unnecessary loss of life.
If there is malpractice associated with that care and you are not in a war zone, then you should be eligible for compensation under the Stayskal Act.
The intention was to recognize that, when you are not in a war zone, when you are at a military medical facility, whether it is in the CONUS or if it is in Europe or if you are on a ship, you should be receiving quality care.

I hope that the Committee will support significant changes in the FAA's noise practices when it considers the FAA reauthorization.
I understand the FAA is reviewing the current noise metric, and I would urge it to adopt a far more nuanced and holistic measurement.
The government's measurement of annoying noise was found by the FAA's own research to be deficient.
Millions of Americans who live near aviation hubs--like my constituents in the 9th District--deserve nothing less.
What is the Air Force doing to retain pilots (or other specialists, such as medical providers and cyber operators) who want to continue fly (or practice medicine or stay on keyboard, etc.) but are not interested in advancing into…
What data is the Air Force collecting on officer and enlisted servicemember satisfaction with the personnel assignments process and what does that data indicate for the three most recent years?
Considering the size of the Space Force as currently envisioned, how will the Space Force manage talent and promotions with the smaller pool of eligible and qualified candidates without nearly every officer needing to be promoted to fill…
