"DAV and our members urge serious reform of the VA health care system to address access problems."
"There is no intention of this Committee to have any negative impact on career civil servants of the Veterans Administration."
"I hope that the next time that we meet we will be discussing our mutual joy and success at coming up with significant legislation for the Veterans Administration."
"I remain committed to doing exactly that. Our veterans, on Memorial Day, deserve a new VA set of standards and the hope of accountability that is meaningful and real."
