Veteran on VA Accountability Bill: ‘Today Was a Good Day for Veterans Nationwide’

‘I think this VA Secretary is doing a good job, he’s got the president’s support to make these changes’

RUSH EXCERPT:
NEIWEEM: “Here’s the dynamic. This ended up being a bipartisan bill, Democrats ended up voting for us. It was bipartisan. I think that President Trump was guns blazing on the campaign trail about reforming the va. What happened the last Congress was the VA secretary asked for this authority and when the bills start flying through Congress, the previous administration issued a veto threat."
MACCALLUM: "Who doesn’t think it’s a good idea to be able to fire someone who’s doing a bad job?"
NEIWEEM: “At the end of the day, President Obama started off good on this. The last secretary made some changes but he got down the 90 online and through some interceptions. He wouldn’t block the federal union, it’s the only entity that’s wanted to get this bill. Today they lost. We needed this one, today was a good day for veterans nationwide."
