Providing For Further Consideration Of H.R. 1960, National Defense Authorization Act For Fiscal Year 2014 June 13, 2013
Marc Veasey, D-TX
"We cannot allow our Federal employees and civilian personnel to continue to serve at the first line of cuts and furloughs in an effort to cut costs.

It is unreasonable to ask federal employees, who have already disproportionately sacrificed for deficit reduction, to bear the burden again."
Military Construction And Veterans Affairs, And Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2014 June 4, 2013
Tim Huelskamp, R-KS
"As a member of the VA Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, we’ve held multiple hearings on the mismanagement and negligence of Federal employees at the VA. What’s worse, many of these individuals have been rewarded for their behavior."
20Th Anniversary Tribute To The Colorado State Veterans Nursing Home May 9, 2013
Mark Udall, D-CO
"On behalf of a grateful nation, I thank the staff at Spanish Peaks Regional Health Center, the Colorado State Veterans Home, and the Federal employees at the VA for their commitment to serving our Nation’s heroes, and I offer them congratulations on the occasion of the Colorado State Veterans Home’s 20th anniversary.
