Hageman\u2019s office indicating that the Sheridan VAMC was not fulfilling its mission with transparency, efficiency, and accountability.\n\n\u201cOur Wyoming veterans are incredibly important to me, to their communities, and to our state as a whole. It is of utmost importance that we give these men and women the medical care that is due them,\u201d said Rep. Hageman. \u201cI have had numerous constituents reach out to me with legitimate concerns around their treatment at the Sheridan VA, and after gathering substantial information, those concerns culminated with today's visit. My advocacy for veterans will continue well past today, and I will work with my team, the House Veterans\u2019 Affairs Committee, and local stakeholders to ensure that our veterans receive the care they deserve.\u201d\n\nThe visit included meetings with local service providers and staff on issues ranging from mental health services to claims processing and facility modernization needs.\n\nThe visit reflects Congresswoman Hageman\u2019s ongoing commitment to protecting those who wore the uniform and ensuring federal agencies operate with the accountability and urgency our veterans deserve. There are over 45,000 veterans in Wyoming, and Congresswoman Hageman will continue to advocate for them all.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T00:33:40Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://hageman.house.gov/media/press-releases/congresswoman-hageman-visits-sheridan-va-house-veterans-affairs-committee"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6668280586600304, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
