Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio) slammed President Obama Thursday over his handling of the VA scandal.
"The White House keeps talking about its efforts to increase VA funding, but where’s the accountability?" Boehner asked.
He also called on President Obama to support the newly passed VA Management Accountability Act and to encourage Senate Democrats to immediately pass it.
Boehner continued, "The President has made a lot of promises to our veterans, it’s time for him to start keeping them… These are men and women who served our country and we haven’t just let them down, we’ve let them die. This is awful stuff! And somebody ought to be held accountable for it."
