“Perhaps in the gentleman's stack of letters that we are entering into the Record, he could find the thank you notes from the veterans who thank us for finally, after decades of inactivity under the previous leadership, acting on concurrent receipts giving veterans what they need; doubling funding for veterans in 10 years; a 4 percent increase next year over this. We budget year to year, and the gentleman knows it. Every year this majority has come through for our veterans. Every year we have been there, and we will continue to be there for America's veterans. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Sessions), my good friend from the Rules Committee and the Budget Committee.”
