David Roe: “Thank you for your service and I say that as a fellow veteran.”

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.

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.

As long as I am in the Congress I will never vote to see the VA do a major project again.

Implementation and enforcement can be a good thing where government is working with businesses to help them get to a desired result or it can be a dagger in the heart.
