Eric Shinseki: “This budget request is VA's plan for meeting our obligation to all veterans of all generations.”

Trust is an important aspect of everything we do here, and it has been in my previous life, as well.

Providing quality, safe, accessible health care for our veterans who have earned them is a core mission.

Any allegation, any adverse incident like this makes me--makes me mad as hell.

I do not think any veteran, whatever the condition, should have to wait that long in any of our facilities, whether it is an emergency room or a clinic.
