Bravo, @SecVetAffairs for ending the absurd practice of taxpayer-funded union time, and using the dollars to serve veterans. This needs to be replicated across government!

Don’t believe the spin from politicians like @SpeakerPelosi . @DeptVetAffairs is serving Veterans better under President Trump. Wait times and backlogs are down, and VA has opened more than a dozen new health care clinics this year!

Spoke today at @DAVHQ’s National Convention about the work we’re doing to improve @DeptVetAffairs to better serve Veterans. We’ve accomplished a lot this year, but there is much more to be done!

This weekend I’m in Nevada – the 20th state I’ve visited so far as @DeptVetAffairs secretary. Grateful to the @VALasVegas team for their dedication and work to put Veterans first!

Astronaut and Navy Veteran Jim Lovell was a legend, plain and simple. I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet him last month. Please join me in mourning his loss and praying for his loved ones.

This is a huge win for those who have worn the uniform. It means VA staff can do what’s right for Veterans without having to cater to union bosses’ demands.

.@DeptVetAffairs has opened 16 new health care clinics during the second Trump Administration. We’re bringing more care and convenience to Veterans, closer to home!

Veterans come first at VA, and I don’t care if that makes the union bosses “outraged”.
