On the recordJuly 25, 2003
The most powerful statement made in this debate this morning is the deafening silence of House Republicans. I hope veterans all across America have noticed that only one Republican out of over 200 in this House had the courage to say that we should have just the right to be able to vote for an amendment to increase veterans health care spending this year by $2 billion. Deafening silence. Broken promises to veterans in time of war, inadequate funding for veterans health care. That is what Republicans are saying when they vote yes on this rule.
