MICHAEL GRIMM: “Clearly, this legislation has brought together a number of unlikely allies in support of our Nation's veterans.”

This audit was released over a year ago and to this day, the complaints of poor service from the VA to schedule timely medical appointments is still one of the most frequent by veterans in my district.

Most importantly, he took ownership and I think that's bold leadership when one, someone can admit they were wrong which he did, and two, take responsibility for it.

We want to move away from risk identification of that binary line. We want to move into graduated risk analysis and true flood management of multi-frequency hazards, including future conditions.

I was receiving numerous complaints from veterans in my district who were waiting months for crucial medical appointments.
