I want to add my praise for the job done by Senators Bond and Mikulski and associate myself with the comments just made by Senator Gregg. I am also familiar with the mobility device which Senator Gregg mentioned. I also believe that some of the veterans with service connected spinal cord injuries could benefit from, and should be assisted by, making these devices available to them. Therefore, it is also my expectation that the Department will aggressively pursue, within available funds and current policy, making this mobility device and other state of the art assistive technologies available to disabled veterans as medically appropriate.
