"Unfortunately, their stories are not unique. I continue to hear from veterans about the problems they run into trying to get mental health care."

"I wish the outcome of the Super Committee had been different, but I know that on both sides Members committed a lot of hours to try to complete that process and it shows how daunting the task is."

"This is simply unacceptable."

"I want to thank you for holding this important hearing today to examine the barriers that veterans face in receiving the mental health services from the VA."
