I have ordered GAO to do a study of surplus property and that which would be liquidatable to try and find a way to raise money to go to Veterans Choice.

I would hope what all of you would do is work together to find some ways to simplify the communication mechanism.

There is no excuse for the plethora of problems the VA was having.

I agree with Mr. Blumenthal, is not the right way to do it.

Supporting the care needs of America's Veterans is a tremendous honor and privilege for me.

I want to make sure we understand or I understand this.

we are not just hoping it is going to be over one day. We are going to make it happen one way or another.

In this mission, failure is not an option.

The American Legion applauds the Senate for unanimously passing an amendment reminding the Department of Veterans Affairs they have the obligation to provide non-VA care.

We need to address this situation to complete the project, but it cannot be done in effect at the sacrifice of other veterans.

What we are trying to do is to streamline that part of the process.

we are going to make Veterans Choice work. It is not an option that it might work; if it does not work, we will think of something else.
