I think we all here share an objective to deal with the crisis of veteran suicide.
H.R. 2474, the PRO Act, is written to bail out the failing labor union business model that is being widely rejected by American workers.
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.
If you were, you wouldn't behave like this. And nobody would spend their own money like this.
