Poor management was the central cause of Nevada’s veterans being forced to wait so long for their disability benefits. It’s time for the VA to address the state’s VA claims backlog by naming a new director committed to fixing these issues at the Reno VARO. Delivering a high quality of care to America’s veterans remains a top priority of mine, and I will continue striving to make the VA the very best it can be.” Attached is a copy of the letter Senator Heller sent to the Reno VARO. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
