Vern Buchanan: Shinseki Needs to Go, 'New Leadership' Needed at VA
Submitted by Kevin Derby on May 20, 2014 - 10:01am
Republicans from Florida continue to call for U.S. Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki to resign as reports continue to emerge about VA medical centers using secret wait lists. While a VA facility in Phoenix used an altered list to show shorter wait times than what they actually had, 40 veterans died waiting medical attention.
On Monday, U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., called for Shinseki to go. Eric Shinseki served our nation with distinction -- but new leadership is necessary to address the VA's atrocious treatment of our veterans, Buchanan insisted on Monday.
