Mike Coffman: “Chairman Coffman and Ranking Member Kirkpatrick, and Members of the Subcommittee, this completes my prepared statement.”

He has been terrific. He certainly has a passion for the people in El Paso and the people he represents.

The fact is, GEO is not cooperative, and so we have an incident here. There could be other incidents down the road.

This administration, the Trump administration, promised to clean up the culture of bureaucratic incompetence inside the VA. And based on this testimony today and other hearings we've had, I don't think they've made a lick of difference.

Thank you for your service all these years on the Committee and the things you have done for the folks in Denver with the Denver VA.
