Julia Brownley: “Provide Plan for Completion of Productivity Standards for Specialty Physicians.”

I look forward to hearing more today about the potential therapeutic benefits of psychedelic assisted therapies for veterans.

I guess my question to you is, and this lies some of my frustration, is that the net net increase in hiring--and I presume it is not--but you let me--tell me one way or the other, is it net net?

I also want to thank you for your work to improve our Nation's infrastructure, to improve transportation safety, and to address the climate crisis.
