Senator Schumer addressed the severe staffing shortages that threaten veteran care. He highlighted vacant positions across specialties like cardiology, hematology, and psychiatry, along with other critical clinical and non-clinical vacancies. As a response, Senator Schumer announced the upcoming introduction of the <em>Protect America’s Workforce Act</em>, legislation designed to reinstate collective bargaining rights for VA employees, and require the filling of essential positions, emphasizing that veterans should not have to fight for the care they earned. The senator, in his appearance, stressed that immediate action investment was required to properly support our Veterans, across Long Island, and the workforce of the VA.</p>"}}
