DEMOCRATIC PRESS RELEASE
March 23, 2007
House Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Bob Filner (D-CA) released
the following statement today on the passage of a Democratic budget
resolution by the House Budget Committee:
Washington, D.C. –“The Democratic budget resolution passed by the House
Budget Committee begins to correct years of serious shortfalls that have
existed for our veterans,” said Chairman Filner. “The budget resolution
restores a number of proposed cuts by President Bush and adds $6.6
billion over 2007 levels for veterans’ health care. Mental health and
post-traumatic stress disorder are serious problems facing our returning
service members and an ongoing issue facing veterans from previous
conflicts. We must fully fund the health care needs of our veterans and
I applaud Chairman Spratt for his leadership in addressing these
issues.”
