I stand to be corrected. I think the Trump led administration seems to have been doing a lot as it pertains the Veterans welfare. Possibly the best attention the veterans are receiving in the past 12 years or more.
What exactly has he done:
Signing the veterans accountability and whistleblower protection act to allow senior officials in the Department of Veterans Affairs to fire failing employees and establish safeguard to protect whistleblowers.
Signed the Veterans Appeals Improvement and Modernization Act
Signed the Harry W. Colmery Veterans Educational Assistance Act, to Provide support.
Signed the VA Choice and Quality Employment Act of 2017 to authorize $2.1billion in additional funds for the Veterans Choice Program
Created a VA hotline
Had the VA launch an online “Access and Quality Tool,” providing veterans with a way to access wait time and quality of care Data
With VA Secretary Dr. David Shulkin, announce three initiatives to expand access to healthcare for Veterans Using telehealth technology
as adapted from the washington examiner.
Summarily; i appreciate the post on doing the whistle-blowing; but i suggest the topic should have given more credence to the efforts of the current administration in addressing some of the wrongs from the past administrations.
What d'you think?
Until the number of Vets that kill themselves daily dropps to 5, then I will give credit but when I talk to Vets, which I do daily they are still getting the shit end of the deal. And to me the admin just gives us all hope but nothing has changed. And it should change like right now. Thanks for your response. All the best.
God Bless
