CAPITOL CORNER: House Passes VA Accountability Bill One of the - TopicsExpress

CAPITOL CORNER: House Passes VA Accountability Bill One of the largest case work volumes that my constituent services representatives aid with is the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). As I head home to celebrate Memorial Day and recognize the sacrifice of those who served, I am thankful to be able to serve and assist the veterans of Georgia’s third district, but it is concerning that this much congressional involvement is needed. The growing number of back-longs, appointment cancellations, and poor service is overwhelming and highly frustrating for our veterans. Those who volunteer, or are called upon, to put their lives on the line to keep our country free simply deserve better than this, and to hear that our veterans have died waiting for help is atrocious. While many people, including President Obama, have been quick to point fingers and complain, the House wasted no time in acting. In a 390-33 vote on May 21, the House passed the overwhelmingly bipartisan H.R. 4031, the Department of Veterans Affairs Management Act of 2014. I’m a cosponsor of this bill which makes it easier to hold senior VA officials accountable by speeding up the process it takes to fire these employees. This bill is the first step towards fixing this bureaucratic nightmare of a department. This is an issue that hits home and affects every person in our country, no matter what side of the aisle you’re on. I call on the Senate and the President to act quickly so that our veterans are no longer trapped in a broken system, and so they can get the treatment and help they deserve. It is our responsibility as Americans to help those who served our country and I will continue to vote for legislation that improves the service of the VA and stops this abuse and mismanagement of the health care of our veterans. I encourage all veterans in the 3rd district to contact my Newnan at 770-683-2033 if you are in need of assistance or have questions. We will do all we can to help you with the process.
