What about Saturday hours, maybe even Sunday and evening hours? Does that make sense to people?

We just passed last year, as you know, the most significant changes in GI education that we have had since World War II.

The DAV has a resolution from its membership urging VA to redouble its efforts to request adequate funding in future budgets.

Is there any reason now why a CBOC or a medical facility in any State in the country could not have extended hours other than budgetary issues?

I believe we need to increase accessibility of the VA to all types of veterans, including those with full-time jobs.

I fully concur with the idea of getting more people into the system, more people and more hours, especially for those who are still working.

I think under President Obama we are going to make more progress, and it is imperative that we continue to work together.

We need to clearly, as you have heard, reform the claims system.

I think we have to move forward to an automatic enrollment in VA for members of the Guard and Reserve.

I believe that in the last 2 years, under Chairman Akaka's leadership, we have made some very, very significant changes.

I think we are now at the moment in history where we may get to implement some of these ideas.

would you agree that it makes sense and in the long run saves money if we greatly expand the number of community health centers?
