I want to thank the Chairman for bringing this bill forward, and hopefully we can get this thing done and out of here by Christmas.

I want to congratulate this entire committee. Every one of you finished in exactly 5 minutes, so congratulations.

I think we are moving in the right direction.

I want to give the VA a shout-out and there are some--obviously, we are going over some problems today that the VA had, but all in all I think the VA probably has the opportunity to be one of the best systems in the country.
