“The House voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to make it easier to fire senior Veterans Affairs officials involved in the healthcare scandal, just hours after President Barack Obama delivered a speech that failed to satisfy those looking to take quick action against the VA. Members passed the VA Management Accountability Act in an easy 390-33 vote — the only ‘no’ votes came from Democrats. Passage of the bill is the latest domino to fall in the expanding healthcare scandal. The VA recently admitted that long wait-times for health clinics contributed to the death of more than 40 veterans, and it later came out that the VA had known about these problems for years, but tried to cover up the problem.”
