Elizabeth Esty: “I would like to find ways for both, clarity, but respect in these letters that meets the letter of the law.”

I want to thank Chairman Roe and Chairman Isakson and Ranking Members Tester and Walz, in particular for their efforts on the Blue Water Navy veterans.

I want to make sure that VA is using RAMP to inform the new system, and not as a means to disguise a true size of the appeals backlog.

I hope we can take the lessons that are being learned there and make sure that those are used every time with forward-going programs.

Again, I think we need clarity on this.
