Thank you, Representative Van Orden. I thought about removing your time because I take offense as a former enlisted who became an officer.

I find your response to be lacking, and I think it, in fact, creates impediments to us, going forward, to prepare for the next pandemic.
I do not think the VA is going to solve this problem by itself, that we need the help of experts across the country to help us in this endeavor to help to solve this problem.
We believe Congress, in coordination with the executive branch, and with the input and approval of state and local governments, should be the body to designate national monuments.
This committee will ensure that the VA does so with caution and an understanding of the risk.
