Show Notes
Senator Tammy Baldwin from Wisconsin raises concerns about the VAs RISE initiative, a major restructuring that could impact veterans access to care. The plan aims to cut regional networks and boost hospital care, but Baldwin hears from vets and providers that it could hurt timely access. Vets in Wisconsin are divided, with some worried about a one-size-fits-all approach. The VA assures no layoffs, but will eliminate vacant positions, potentially affecting staffing shortages. Baldwin pushes for transparency on wait times and staffing shifts, emphasizing the importance of keeping promises to veterans.
