I ask unanimous consent to make some remarks on the Burr-Tillis amendment No. 3175 to the Energy bill. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Corolla Wild Horses Protection Amendment

and colleagues, I am embarrassed that I am having to come to the floor to talk about an amendment that makes so much sense, that embraces everything that I think the legislative branch and, more importantly, the American people support…

Wasn't title I designed to supplement the needs of those kids? Today, it doesn't follow the kids.

Let me just refresh your memory. Title II funding formula changed over a 7-year period.

I give a great deal of credit to Senator Crapo for passionately advocating for veterans in Idaho.

I will close by saying this, that the Veterans Choice Improvement Act will help veterans across America get the best health care we have to offer.

I introduced this legislation with Senator Ayotte, Boozman, Crapo, Daines, Hoeven, Moran, and Tillis.

The VFW thanks Senator Burr for ensuring VA does not withhold care from veterans who may not know their insurance status has changed.

I thank the Chair. I thank the Ranking Member. I thank my colleagues.

Many in Congress--from both sides of the aisle--are less than enthusiastic at the present about the management capabilities of the VA.
