Thank you, Chair.
I want to thank Mr. Bruyea, Ms. Fitzpatrick and Mr. Hunter for your testimony today. I also want to thank you for your strength, your commitment and your fight.
As you know, since being elected, I have been a passionate champion for our veterans and first responders. I have sat with many families left behind to pick up the pieces. I have sat with many veterans who are shattered, who feel they served their country and that our country has forgotten them. I truly appreciate your testimony today.
Mr. Hunter, you mentioned the committee shutting down the investigation into military sexual trauma. What message does that send to our female veterans and military?
