PORTLAND, ME –Today, Congresswoman Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) released the following statement on the recent report detailing malpractice at VA facilities: “I was deeply concerned to hear from leadership at Togus that our state’s veterans had received substandard care and a formal investigation was underway. This is an inexcusable situation—one that has again raised alarm bells about the quality of care at VA health facilities and eroded trust in the VA’s mission of ‘caring for those who have borne the battle.’ |
