It is not in just how the veterans put it on the paper. It is how an employer reads that resume.

Because one of the things I hear from veterans a lot is they do not get credit at educational institutions for a lot of the work and experience they have.

Do you have any recommendations how we can improve TAP to help our servicemembers?

I want to thank everybody and, Mr. Chairman, especially you for doing this hearing on a very, very important topic.

I am very concerned that CDC has issued these guidelines, they want people to stay home, it's absolutely the right thing to do.

Expectations were high. We have all watched, with frustration, long lines at home, in many places...

We shouldn't put families in that bind. We should make sure that they stay home when they're sick.

The Alpine Lakes Wilderness Additions and Pratt and Middle Fork Snoqualmie Rivers Protection Act will protect wildlife, promote clean water, enhance and protect recreational opportunities.

The existing 394,000 acre Alpine Lakes Wilderness is a treasure both in Washington State and across the country.

I appreciate her co-sponsorship of this bill as well as her assistance.

I want to thank you and Senator Barrasso for including the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Additions and Pratt and Middle Fork Snoqualmie Rivers Protection Act as part of your hearing today.

We would also like to sincerely thank Senator Murray and Representative Reichert for introducing this important legislation.

The ACA wholeheartedly supports S. 1204, as introduced by Senator Patty Murray.

I share Senator Burr's concern about exposure issues and ensuring the VA knows who is affected.

PVA supports S. 1394, the 'Veterans Entitlement to Service Act of 2009.'

I appreciate that very much.

I also introduced the Prisoner of War Benefits Act of 2009.

I want to work with all of you to make sure it is not just rhetoric from the top, but that it truly creates a better atmosphere for women.

I introduced this bill with Senator Sam Brownback and a number of others to expand chiropractic care at VA facilities.

And no veteran should have to fight to cut through bureaucratic red tape to receive the benefits they earned and deserve.

I introduced the Homeless Women Veterans and Homeless Veterans with Children Act with Senator Jack Reed and Senator Tim Johnson.

Senators Murray, Johnson, and Reed, in introducing this bill, recognize that the same difficulties faced by single female parents are experienced by single male parents.

PVA fully supports S. 1237, the 'Homeless Women Veterans and Homeless Veterans with Children Act of 2009' and appreciates Senator Murray expanding this program.

I look forward to hearing your comments on the legislation we are considering.

We have to reform our health insurance system this year.
