Thanks very much, Mr. Chairman. Before I ask the question from Ms. Pape, I want to thank you and the many employees at the VA for your efforts to care for our veterans and to serve our veterans as well all across the country.
I want to thank you as well. I can't thank you enough for the work that you have done on this committee.
I am humbled and honored by President Barack Obama's nomination to lead the Department of Labor's Veterans' Employment and Training Service.
