va_secretary_shulkinWe are pleased that President-elect Trump has chosen Dr. David Shulkin to continue and complete the transformation of the Department of Veterans Affairs currently underway.

As Under Secretary for Health, Dr. Shulkin worked closely with DAV and others to strengthen and reform the VA health care system.  From his time at VA and his long experience in the private sector, Dr. Shulkin has proven to be both qualified and dedicated to keeping our nation’s promises to the men and women who serve.

DAV looks forward to working alongside Dr. Shulkin to provide a voice for injured and ill veterans in continuing the progress already underway.  As always, DAV will continue to advocate for veterans’ best interests in and out of VA, lending support when appropriate and voicing concerns or taking action as necessary. Above all, we look forward to regularly and openly engaging with Dr. Shulkin as we work together to build a system worthy of the men and women it serves.
