Exactly. As Ronald Reagan said, this is a great country filled with good people. There are so many good people, it makes you feel good to be in America. Especially senior citizens, they want to do what is right in this country. They recognize we have problems in this country. They are willing to make their contribution, but as the gentleman says, we have talked to veterans groups. It is not always me, me, me, and that is too bad that some organizations here advocate that. We are moving in the right direction. The rudder is right, we are all talking about balance the budget, balancing the budget and getting fiscal responsibility back in Washington. Now is a chance, the best chance ever in our lifetimes, to really bring that fiscal sanity back here and get a balanced budget by the year 2002. I am more optimistic today, whether we deal with the administration or we just do it on our own.

in closing, I would just say H.R. 2874, as amended, would establish a number of meaningful improvements that would help VA to provide better care for our Nation's veterans. Once again, I support my colleagues to support this bill.
