Today, Congressman Bill Cassidy offered the following statement on the resignation of Veterans' Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki:

"It's clear Secretary Shinseki needed to be held accountable. Since the President said in 2008 that reforming the VA was a priority, he should be held accountable too. We must work towards patient-centered reforms in the VA. Healthcare decisions should be made to serve veterans, not bureaucrats."
