Without naming the party who wants this (and never mind what this would do to the US military) do me a favor and vote for the lady and her party this November.
This isn't "I heard it from some guy who read it on Bing" or some boiler room propaganda hoo-hah. This is real life. MY life.. and all the other Vets who rely on the VA. I really wish I was making this up, unfortunately it really is true.

Won’t argue against your firsthand communication with the VA Neuro Unit. But you should know the last I read VA funding cuts are a bipartisan effort.
Also Im still on TriCare for retirees and I am extremely satisfied with the medical practices on the ‘outside’.
The ‘lady’ could request a gazillion billion trillion extra dollars but there is no guarantee any of it would address your needs. For that to happen you should write your congressman and inform them what your specific needs are. You never know, you might find your representative could divert the dollars today. Sittin’ on your arse feeling sorry for yourself hoping someone drops a dollar or two the hat is no way to go through life.
