51% : " Link Miles, local president of the union that represents VA doctors and other health care providers at Spokane's Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center, said the cuts will accelerate the VA's increasing reliance on sending veterans to private-sector health care providers, who already don't have the capacity to care for Inland Northwest veterans promptly.41% : He directed the agency to work with the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, the ad hoc team assembled by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk and empowered by President Donald Trump to carry out mass layoffs and root out what Musk has called "evil" government programs.
17% : " Sen. Patty Murray, a Washington Democrat who sits on the Senate VA Committee, raged against the proposed cuts in a statement released Wednesday. "Donald Trump and Elon Musk are escalating their full-scale, no-holds-barred assault on veterans - and putting the health care and benefits they have earned in grave danger," she said.
