Thank you.
With that being said, I think we got a lot of clarity on what is and what isn't at this point in time.
I am very concerned about another promise in 2019 of $150 million. It was supposed to kind of appease this whole concern about survivors receiving a portion of their loved one's pension when they pass away, and none of those funds have gone out yet. To put that money forward before being ready is a trademark of this government. They make announcement after announcement, even with COVID, and nothing has been established or put in place yet.
I would ask those of you who are engaged on that particular issue if you could please, even now, having had a little more time, Ms. Garrett-Baird, explain to us where that process is at. When and what can we expect to come out of that in light of the fact that it appears to me that there's not a will or perhaps an ability at this point in time to come forward and meet the desire of our veterans and their spouses, as was outlined in the 2015 mandate letter.
