.@ctlyle1 of @MissionRollCall says the VA's electronic health records system is much needed as an update to the current, outdated system.

Can it work?

Great to speak with @Cory_L_Smith on the @MissionRollCall poll re: concurrent receipt and why it’s a moral imperative to correct current law
Veterans and their advocates are hoping for the passage of a bill that would deliver full benefits to wounded warriors.

@MissionRollCall polled veterans on changing the @DeptVetAffairs motto from the current Lincoln quote, “To care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan,” to something more gender-inclusive.
With 11k+ responses, 70% said the motto should change.

“@MissionRollCall conducted a poll that showed 67% of Gen Z respondents don’t personally know a military member or veteran…which points to how military service has become a narrow swath of the American public.”
