"there's been an issue at the VA in which a person at suicide risk was counseled by their supervisor to frankly lie about the incident."

"if this has been going on for some time, it's not brand new, it's pervasive, but not being fixed apparently."

"How pervasive, do you have a sense of how pervasive that is?"

"We're talking suicide, you see what I'm saying?"
