Doug Collins: “I think coming to this conclusion it is more than just words. Actions have to be taken here.”

We have been emphatic that we will not be cutting benefits and health care, only improving them, and I think the budget shows that.

Now, we regret anyone who loses their job, and it’s extraordinarily difficult for me, especially as a VA leader and your secretary, to make these types of decisions.

each investment is tied to a concrete improvement Veterans will notice: shorter waits, better coordination, and more consistent access to both VA and community care.

I mean no disrespect to anyone, but VA should not be focused on helping Veterans attempt to change their sex.
