Veterans

Veterans are American heroes. Just as these brave men and women have fought for our country, we must fight for them here at home. While there are many good employees at the Veterans Administration, the single-payer bureaucracy often prevents quality care. Poor performance and abuse is UNACCEPTABLE. I voted to hire more doctors and nurses, speed appeals, and improve accountability for negligent employees. My office helps many Tennessee vets claim benefits and care.
