We have a hard time figuring out why people from VISN 8 to VISN 1 and 2 are telling us that they have a really tight budget this year when we got a 12-percent increase in the veterans' health care budget.

We need serious, deep, and broad reform, that kind of change that may be uncomfortable for some in VA, but so desperately needed by America's veterans.
The VA's goal of ending veterans homelessness by the year 2015 is an ambitious goal.
I personally was interested that the report should address the 40 deaths because my concern was that the veterans would not have faith in their healthcare system.
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.
