Robert – I wanted to share with you that on Wednesday I released, along with Senator Heller, a report on the VA disability claims backlog and introduced legislation that would help eliminate the claims backlog that has forced many of our veterans to wait over 200 days for their claim to be processed. Veterans and their families make tremendous sacrifices for our country and it is simply unacceptable that they aren’t getting the care they need in a timely manner. Now is the time to advance bipartisan legislation that will move the VA’s disability claims system into the 21st Century, so that it delivers the relief that our veterans and their families deserve.
