    Not sure if you’re a veteran but I am. I look forward to the VA being more efficient.

        The first step is laying off the chaff. It’s just returning the va to 2019 levels. The VA keeps growing much the number of veterans isn’t.

        I disagree. We don’t need more people, we need a more efficient VA system.

          And you don’t get there by gutting the people who make it happen.

            No evidence that those 70K people made it happen.

              Here is evidence that more people were helped by having more staff.

                That doesn’t show that at all. That is just the number of staff by month.

                  Sorry, no those are claims. You said they were going back to 2019 staffing levels.
