David Roe: “You have to have a choice system where veterans can go outside there if they choose to do so.”

We have to reach out and try to find those 14 who never get to the VA, never get the care.

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.

I think one of the most distressing statistics I heard during our roundtable in Tennessee was that the second-leading cause of death between the ages of 10 and 34 is suicide.

It is not a threat to the VA, it is a lifeline to the VA.
