Tell the VA not to allow any more veterans to have to wait for the important care they need.
Soldiers who return from war should come home knowing they are going to receive the care they need from the Department of Veterans Affairs. But more and more, service members are reporting sub-par care at VA facilities as well as long wait times to be seen for treatment.
Some of these ex-soldiers suffer from intense depression as a result of war, and the rate of suicide among this demographic is sharply on the rise. That’s why we need to reexamine the way the VA is administering care to its patients.
Veterans who have dutifully served their country shouldn’t have to suffer through the emotional cost of war on their own. We can’t have our noble service members committing suicide because they weren’t given the treatment and attention they needed at the time they needed it.
Tell Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki to ensure our veterans are receiving timely, quality care so that they may heal from the wounds of war.
