Within about 4 days after sending my complaint to Chairman Craig- Senate Committe on Vets Affairs-
regarding what I consider to be a scam( but I called it a growing two fold practice in ROs to deny vets their basic rights as claimants)-
and I laid out my claim situation as evidence to support my charge-
the VARO has gotten notice of this as a Congressional Inquiry and the temp folder has been with either the RO Congressional liason or the Director since July 25th.
This was a very strong letter. I am fed up. Those VCAA remands at the BVA web site are getting me very angry-they mean -in many cases- that fed employees at GS 12 or higher do not do their jobs.
Sure they (59 %)told the IG they are under pressure and dont have time to make proper decisions-(IG Report March 2005) yeah right- vets are under pressure -I dont care about the RO employee problems at all.
What gets me is that why does any claimant have to take these steps-when all the RO has to do is their job?
One of my Buffalo vets recently sure took them on very strongly too- and he is getting his claim worked on finally after years.He got an award but it was only part of what they owe,but they still actively are resolving it.
This will be very interesting.If the same VA liason to Congress who lied to my last Congressman tries some BS in a response- I will whip out all that past crap- that I have documented and saved- and maybe get in touch with Knight Ridder (Washington Post)

When thousands of Americans faced annihilation in the 1800s Chief
Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was
simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we."
Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we.
