One Nation today issued the following statement applauding Senator Roy Blunt for calling on VA Secretary Robert McDonald to resign after he compared long wait times for our veterans to vacationers waiting in line for a ride at Disneyland.
“Senator Blunt has been relentless in fighting for the rights of veterans and taking on the VA’s incompetent, uncaring Washington bureaucracy,” said Steven Law, president of One Nation and former Chief of Staff to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. “VA Secretary Robert McDonald’s outrageous comparison of long veteran wait times to lines at Disneyland is symptomatic of the culture of callousness that Sen. Blunt is fighting against. One Nation applauds Sen. Blunt’s leadership on crucial veterans’ health legislation like the Veterans Access to Community Care Act, the Veterans Access, Choice, and Accountability Act, and the Veterans Choice Improvement Act.”
