the department. one is your former position. we plucked you out of va leadership to become the leader of va. that was a good idea. the bad idea is it still doesn't have anybody in your place where you were in terms of secretary of health. the assistant secretary of accountability and whistleblower protection is not in place. that person needs to be in place. the undersecretary for benefits, which is a critical position the va needs to be in place, and the secretary for information technology, which is absolutely critical, particularly with the sernor information coming in, has got to be filled somewhere sooner rather than later. i have asked these questions privately and have looked -- and i know you're trying, but this is one of those things where "a" for effort's not good enough. we have to figure out a way to get the best folks in the united states of america in these disciplines working for the veterans administration and working for our veterans. can you tell us what progress you have made and what you're doing on those four in particular? >> yeah. let me give you a quick update on that.

the va program is a sound program. mr. cooper mentioned that for the last ten years we've had the lowest foreclosure rate and that's an indicator of the safety and soundness of our program and as i mentioned in my opening statement, the actions that we have taken over the years to ensure that we continue to have those type of performances is exactly what we need to do for the issues that are brought out today. i do believe that the va has a statutory authority to address the issues and i agree with the education and the veterans can make sound decisions of their own and it's our job that we give them the tools to make those decisions. >> i agree. i would add, it is entirely true that the va loan program has low delinquencies and the best testament to the va, and i think that's a testament to the deal that officers and enlisted folks make with themselves when they apply for the program. there say strong sense that this is an earned benefit, but we need to continue to earn this benefit by performing on the loan and that's a g

together hud and the va and the u.s. interagency counsel on homelessness implemented a joint decision making structure to administer the policies and programs related to hud veterans homelessness and standards to evaluate whether communities endeded homelessness and since 2014, more than 880 state and local officials set the goal of ending veterans homelessness and as of january 11th, 60 communities across 30 states have achieved this goal. this is an amazing accomplishment. in conclusion, we must continue to find ways to maximize effectiveness of hud vash program and work to bring critical housing and health resources to veterans and assisting communities of utilizing all available homelessness resources. thank you very much for facilitating this work and i welcome any questions you may have. >> thank you, ms. blom. dr. lynch, you now have five minutes. >> thank you. good afternoon, chairman wenstrup. ranking members and members of the subcommittees. i appreciate the opportunity to discuss the va's commitment to ending

so the va has to deal with is. why the joint ventures are really important so that the -- as many people can get help as quickly as possible without frustrating our vets. the problem with frustrating a vet that just came out of combat. doesn't get help immediately, there's a threat of self-medication and there's a lot of that. the challenge is to prevent that's from happening as best as we can. by the way issue used to self medicate. i quit drinking in '86. [applause] >> who will the sum of your next portrait and why? >> actually, an interesting question. me. i looked at a lot of paintings of past master and they paint themselves a lot. i guess kind of an arrogant lot. and one reason why, if you foul it up, doesn't upset anybody. so one of my instructors paints a giant portrait, who assaulted i paint vets. a fabulous painter. and they're big faces. happens to be an african-american and has painted the faces nobody knows. he knows them because they're relatives, people he grew up with and they're great paintings. so

. >> let's begin with the va and increasing accountability at the va not the least of which, one of manyonald trump has accomplished. >> this is a big accomplishment for the trump administration. back in june the president signed into law the va accountability protection act and what this bill did is made it substantially easier to fire bad employees and those found guilty of misconduct. previously it could take up to 700 days if not longer to fire va employees who were found guilty of misconduct including engaging in actions that led to the deaths of veterans. now you can get them off the payroll in as little as 21 days and that is a huge improvement, firings of bad employees have gone up since this law was signed and it could serve as a model for civil service performed across the whole government so that makes this law a bigger accomplishment in our minds. >> this is just the beginning, much more does need to be done. something else, the g.i. bill, he strengthened the g.i. bill as well. >> signed into law the forever g.i. bill which was reforms crafted by a group called veterans for a

the va loan program stands out as a true success story. before the mortgage crisis, the loan was a little used product but due to the unique underwrite the loans were the only shining light through the mortgage crisis performing better than any other program. today the loans represent about 10% of the mortgage market and featured the lowest interest rates for more than three years alone with the foreclosure rates about ten years. in particular, the program has helped hundreds of thousands of veterans save money on their monthly mortgage payment. unfortunately, members of the panel stated before some field to live up to the intent of the program. the idea is to put veterans in a better financial position today than they were yesterday. we are here today to discuss improvements on the program to ensure it's carried out from first-hand experience i can for you as soon as it is made of the refinancing companies are aggressively contacting veterans and families with misleading mortgage office and many don't care that will take the veteran a deca

if he was advised at some point to go see a doctor but is now a part of the va but of course these arepeople that serve our country and may not have the ability financially. this is the system that they are in and it could cost their lives. >> guest: donna told me that the struggle financially when her husband died they didn't have a supply of cash waiting. her mom said we are just good country people who don't have those resources to go and provide for her daughter in the wake of her son-in-law's death. some people don't have the resources and if they are living in a bubble in manhattan and not to say that everyone here has those resources that in the bubble of the political commentary, it was eye-opening to see. >> host: as a father to imagine your wife or child needing treatment for surgery and then the person, the doctor saying we will make an appointment. it would be so infuriating. it's understandable why people were infuriated. >> guest: especially those of us that have chosen to sacrifice our lives and in some cases overseas and imperil our lives by fighting overseas. it upon r
