Ron DeSantis actually said...

"We are going to bring the VA in line with much of the rest of the country and do so following the best practices and ensuring that this is effective."

"What it seeks to do is harness the use of specially trained service dogs to treat veterans who are suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress."

"We encourage the VA and this Committee to work with Mr. Lyle and Congressman DeSantis toward establishing a workable pilot program."

"The PAWS Act requires that, to be eligible, a veteran shall have been treated and have completed an established evidence-based treatment."
