Rick Scott: Eric Shinseki Needs to Resign at VA

On Wednesday, Gov. Rick Scott called on VA Secretary Eric Shinseki to resign. Shinseki, who is scheduled to meet with President Barack Obama on Wednesday, is under fire as reports have surfaced that VA medical facilities have relied on secret wait lists.

Scott appeared on WJXT in Jacksonville and was asked where the buck stops and who was responsible for the VA medical facility problems.

It stops at the secretary, Scott said. It stops with the president. Im a veteran. I have a lot of friends that are veterans. My father was in the 82nd Airborne. This is personal. They served their time, they should get great care. What were seeing is: there are deaths and we know there are injuries. The assistant secretary said, we dont know if there is a correlation between harm and death. Give me a break. Shinseki needs to resign. We need to have new leadership.
