0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted June 2, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted June 2, 2017 broncovet I believe it has passed the house senate committee ? Currently waiting for the last stand for approval and the President Sign it. According to Jbasser & Jerrel Cook with the hadit podcast radio show last night! I would never thought it would be approved but they want that choice card to be fixed....why don't they close down other worthless va programs? Cutting veterans benefits goes against the entire system and will cause double standards with the VA IN THE FUTURE let alone all the Suicides this will cause. Looks like to me in my opinion as for as veterans seeking medical care within 30 days...they could put a veteran ahead of the line depending on his disability condition if its emergency or the veteran is in a life or death situation then let them in the VA MC First if the veteran lives 40 miles away then VA GO GET THAT VETERAN and bring him to the VAMC There's other ways to fix this problem that cutting veterans benefits that they worked so hard to get in the first place.

0 Berta Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Right but please dont stay away from hadit.... We need to advise vets here of anything BS or otherwise that might turn out bad for them. The "mis information as always" part-----------------------is that directed to me? You should contact Tbird if anyone here has misled you.Or correct their info in their post. 60-man and Jerrel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Moderator broncovet Posted June 2, 2017 Moderator Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) I agree with Berta. Dont stay away from this site. You see, if one of us posts something inaccurate, the others chime in and correct us. The VA does not have this. The government does not. The media does not. However, hadit has "immediate feedback" and accountability, so we often check each others information. You get the best information here..because its tested by other members.

0 marina53 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 White House VA hotline # is 1-855-948-2311 is open. I called this number and after 15 minutes of being on hold, I was connected to an actual person. She requested the name and SS of the vet (my husband) a phone number and an email address. It is a complaint line, so I told her that I wanted to speak to someone about the proposal to eliminate TDIU . I went through all my concerns. She then told me that within 14 days I will get a response. For what it's worth, I suggest everyone with the TDIU concern (and any other) to call this number. Believe me, I was shocked to speak to a real person. Just put your phone on speaker and suffer through the awful music and eventually you will be connected. Like I said, for what it's worth.

This is not the 1st time IU has been on the chopping block. The Bean Counters see a very large savings by eliminating and or cutting IU to Vets that also receive SS Bennies. In the past, the prop
