Bernie Sanders actually said...

"Should Bernie Sanders have done more as the chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs committee to hold the VA accountable for delays in care?"

"As a result of that legislation, we went further than any time in recent history in improving health care to the men and women of this country who put their lives on the line to defend us."

"What we did is pass $15 billion piece of legislation, which brought in many, many new doctors and nurses into the VA so that veterans in this country could get the health care when they needed it."

"Did the delay in care of these people on the secret waiting list actually cause these deaths? We don't know."
