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.

the crisis of veteran suicide is not new, but our solutions must be, and that is why I introduced the Veterans' Acute Crisis Care for Emergent Suicide Symptoms Act, or Veterans' ACCESS Act, that will mandate VA cover the costs of emergency…

With all the metrics and good intentions and all of that, the suicide rates have not changed, so we need to do something different.

We have to start doing something differently.
