VA Screws Vetrans, pays out “performance bonuses” to senior management.
Don’t you just love when Democrat Party starts eating its own?!?
WASHINGTON — The chairman of a House panel wants to stop hefty bonus payments to senior Veterans Affairs officials until they reduce a severe backlog of veterans waiting for disability benefits.
Rep. John Hall, D-N.Y., said Friday he was introducing legislation to place a hold on this year’s bonuses after The Associated Press reported that senior VA officials involved in a budget foul-up which jeopardized veterans’ health care received bonuses ranging up to $33,000.
Ain’t that just classic. No money for doctors, nurses, building maintenance, or disabled veterans. Plenty for non-medical deskjockeys.
This is nothing new. VA has always payed themselves at the expense of veterans.
Read the whole article. I am going to keep trawling, see if this is running anywhere else this low newscycle morning.
