In September, Congresswoman Kuster joined Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Jeff Miller and Acting Ranking Member Mark Takano in calling on Attorney General Loretta Lynch to launch investigations into whether former VA construction chief Glenn Haggstrom and other VA officials committed perjury in statements before Congress regarding the Aurora, Colorado VA medical center. “I’m hopeful that the FBI will thoroughly investigate whether VA officials purposefully mislead the Veterans’ Affairs Committee in testimony regarding mismanagement and cost overruns at the VA facility in Colorado,” said Congresswoman Kuster. “The problems at the VA facility in Colorado are very troubling and if officials misrepresented the situation there they should be held responsible.” The letter from the Assistant Attorney General Kadzik is available here. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
