POLITICS IS PARTIALLY TO BLAME. IN NEW OP-ED IN THE "WALL VETERANS HAVE BECOME A POLITICAL FOOTBALL IN THE NATIONAL DEBATE OVER HEALTHCARE. TACKLE HEALTHCARE EFFECTIVELY LAWMAKERS AND ADVOCATES OUGHT TO UNCOUPLE REFORM FROM THAT DEBATE AND FOCUS ON WHAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE FOR VETERANS TODAY. RETIRED MARINE CORPS PATROL AND VETERANS ADVOCATE JEFF KLEE LAND. THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR SERVICE AND ADVOCACY AND WHAT YOU WROTE. IT'S TRUE, THERE CAN BE A LOT OF POLITICS INSIDE THE V.A. BECAUSE OF COURSE, PEOPLE BELIEVE DIFFERENT THINGS ABOUT HOW HEALTHCARE SHOULD BE DELIVERED. THIS PRESIDENT RAN ON GIVING THE PRIVATE SECTOR. WHAT'S HAPPENING IN CONGRESS RIGHT NOW, HOW CLOSE ARE WE TO GETTING TO THAT TRUE CHOICE? PIECE OF LEGISLATION RIGHT NOW, AND THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME ON HERE AND GREAT PIECE OF LEGISLATION OUT THERE RIGHT NOW AND IT HAS BROUGHT SUPPORT FROM THE VSO. FROM THE TOP VSO AND VETERAN ADVOCATES IN THE COUNTRY AND IT'S GETTING KICKED AROUND RIGHT NOW FOR ISSUES ON WHAT JUST A COUPLE WEEKS AGO THE VETERAN HEALTHCARE SEGMENT. IT WAS A BIT FRUSTRATING TO SEE THIS HAPPENING. I COULD SEE THAT THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO GET PASSED WITHIN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS IF WE GET THE POLITICS OUT OF THE WAY HERE. PETE: THAT'S THE CHALLENGE. ONE OF THE DEMOCRATS INVOLVED IN THE COMMITTEE. HIS NAME IS MARK TACANO A WE HAVE EITHER SOUND OR A FULL SCREEN. DO WE HAVE IT? REFERENDUM ON THE MISTAKEN BELIEF THAT THE PRIVATE PETE: HE HAS LONG BEEN AN OPPONENT OF WHAT OTHERS CALL REFORM. THE IDEA VETS SHOULDN'T BE STUCK IN THE V.A. SYSTEM. THEY SHOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO OUTSIDE IF THE V.A. DOESN'T SERVE THEM. HOW DO WE PUT THE VETERAN AT THE CENTER AS OPPOSED TO THE WHEN THE CHOICE ACT WAS INITIALLY IMPLEMENTED AND THEN IT WAS REALIZED THIS WASN'T A WAY TO PRIVATIZE. THIS WAS A WAY TO PUT THE VETERAN AT THE CENTER OF THE PROBLEM. YOU HAVE SECRETARY SHULKIN LOOKING AT THIS SAYING HOW CAN WE BEST TAKE THIS SYSTEM AND WORK IT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL INSTEAD OF SYSTEM. THEY HAVE TAKEN GREAT STEPS AND CONGRESSMAN THAT AND CONGRESSMAN TACT AND CONGRESSMAN TACANO'S COMMENTS ARE IT ALMOST SEPARATES VETERANS FROM THE POPULATION SAYING THEY NEED SPECIALIZED CARE AND V.A. DOES SPECIALIZED CARE THEY DO. MOVEMENT THE FACT THAT I HAVE TO GO TO DOCTOR FOR MY KNEE AND SAID I HAVE NEVER SEEN A VETERAN KNEE BEFORE AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TREAT THAT ALMOST LAUGHABLE. LAUGHABLE MAKES THE CIVILIAN MILITARY DIVIDE EVEN WORSE BY MAKING COMMENTS LIKE THAT. PETE: ONE QUESTION, TWO BILLS, JERRY MORE RAN BILL AND JOHN J ISAAC SON BILL AS WELL. DO YOU HAVE A PREFERENCE OF THE TWO THAT ARE IN THE >> HONESTLY THERE NEEDS TO BE A GOOD MIX THE TWO OF. FISCAL ISSUES THAT AREN'T BEING PUSHED BACK AGAINST. I DON'T HAVE A SPECIFIC PREFERENCE RIGHT NOW. PETE: AS FAR AS WHAT THE PRESIDENT RAN ON AND WHAT VETERANS ARE LOOKING FOR. TRUE CHOICE IS THE BAROMETER AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU WROTE ABOUT.
