The reality is, it is the lack of proper oversight and the brazen willingness of the VA to violate congressional intent and prioritize issues that have zero impact on improving patient outcomes for veterans that has led to such disdain with the quality of VA care,” wrote Daines, Zinke and Rosendale. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:11:47Z |
