Issue Position: Fix the VA

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018
Issues: Military Personnel Veterans Health and Health Care

The VA has made improvements, but is still far from where it needs to be. I know, because I live with it every day. Our veterans are hurting, with suicide rates that are catastrophic at around 20 per day. Furthermore, excessive benefits for veterans that do not need them are costing the taxpayers billions while crowding out veterans who truly do need the care. We have to fix this.

If elected, I will keep going to the VA for my appointments, so that I continue to understand the patient experience at VA hospitals in Texas.
