Now in Congress, she addresses the pressing issues of bureaucratic roadblocks, the complexities of the VA system, and the critical need for reform in the doctor-patient relationship. In this episode, she discusses why veterans deserve greater choice and accessibility in health care and how she advocates for the Mission Act’s goals to ensure all veterans have the freedom to choose their medical providers. On this Veterans Day, hear her reflections on military service, the values that continue to guide her work, and her dedication to defending freedom from both the battlefield and Congress. This is a tribute to the resilience, honor, and unwavering commitment of our nation’s veterans.
