Vice President Mike
Pence turns 59 today. Happy birthday, Mr. Vice President!
A historic
moment for America's veterans
President Trump
took an important step yesterday toward addressing how
the United States treats its veterans, signing the VA Mission
Act of 2018. The law will transform the Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) into a high-performing and integrated healthcare
system for the 21st century by putting patient choice at the
core of the VA program.
"Four years
ago, our entire Nation was shocked and outraged by
stories of the VA system plagued by neglect, abuse, fraud, and
mistreatment of our veterans," President Trump said. "With
us today are many brave veterans who endured that grave
injustice, including Steve Cooper and Laura Vela. They served
their country with honor, only to be denied the medical
treatment they desperately needed."
The President
explained how the new law will help veterans like
Cooper and Vela in the future: "If the VA can't meet the
needs of a veteran in a timely manner, that veteran will have
the right to go right outside to a private doctor."

500 days of
making government for the people
Americans
deserve accountability from their government,
President Trump says. Through the first 500 days of the Trump
Administration, the President has refocused the Federal
bureaucracy to make sure that voters are truly in charge of
Washington:
•
President
Trump has issued multiple Executive Orders that reform
the Civil Service, including making union contracts
open to public inspection, cutting down on taxpayer-funded
union activities at Federal agencies, and easing the process to
remove poor-performing workers.
•
The
Administration is operating under a "One Federal
Decision" memorandum of understanding for
infrastructure, which puts the burden of coordinating complex
permitting reviews on Federal officials, not applicants.
•
Despite obstruction from
Congressional Democrats, the President has appointed a record
number of Federal judges who are interpreting the law
as it is written, promoting federalism, and standing for
Constitutional liberties to combat government overreach.
