Mike Michaud: “I have an increasing worry that Secretary McDonald and you are getting bad advice from some of those around you within…”

I greatly appreciate that we are all partners in promoting opportunities for veterans and in protecting their rights.

As a veteran, I don't feel like I needed to be rebooted, because I am concerned that word by itself may detract somewhat from the decision that our young men and women are making to serve their country.

We see a decline in opioid use. We see a decline in suicide. And I think that is obviously good for the veteran.

If you look at the chart comparing women veterans to female non-veterans, you can see in that chart that actually the female veterans' number is lower than the female non-veterans.
