David Roe: “We need strong leaders at the VA hospitals who are committed to putting the plan in place.”

Now, don't just ask me that. Go back and read the words of the people that founded this country and put together our Constitution.

Do not imply, Mr. Secretary, I care any less about the veterans who are committing suicide. I have declared suicide prevention to be the No. 1 priority of this committee.

Every time a life is lost to suicide, it is a tragedy.

It is embarrassing to me to go home and to look those folks in the eye who work as hard as they do and write the checks they do to see this big of a disaster, financial disaster.
