Democrat Blocked Accountability Measure for Veterans Affairs in the U.S. Senate

by Spencer Irvine on

Ugh, why would you block this legislation meant to help veterans by keeping government bureaucrats accountable?

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) on Tuesday blocked an up-or-down vote on legislation meant to hold VA employees accountable for misconduct.

The Democratic lawmaker denied a motion for unanimous consent after Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.), a GOP presidential candidate, brought the VA Accountability Act of 2015 to the Senate floor for immediate consideration.
