A single US Senator blocked a bill, the Clay Hunt SAV Act, that would have further improved mental health care for Veterans. Apparently the bill "threw money away" (Sen Coburn) that was already funded through other VA bills. The Senator stated that we just need to hold the VA accountable, not introduce a new bill.
H.R. 5059 would have required the Secretary of Veterans Affairs and the Secretary of Defense to annually arrange for an independent evaluation of the VA and DOD mental health care and suicide prevention programs. It would also increase the number of psychiatrists at VA facilities.
With the epidemic of suicide and mental health disorders in our Veteran population, I am infuriated that our Congress can't pass a bill, more so that one Senator could block it from being passed. I know there is a lot that has been done and needs to be done with the VA, but they have to start somewhere; just my opinion of course.

I'm confused. President Obama signed the February 2, 2015.
The new suicide prevention law is named in honor of Clay Hunt, an extraordinary young Texan and decorated Marine who served with distinction in Iraq and Afghanistan. Like too many of our veterans, Clay struggled with depression and post-traumatic stress after he came home. Sadly, Clay’s life ended much too soon when he tragically committed suicide in 2011 at the age of only 28.
The Clay Hunt Suicide Prevention for American Veterans (SAV) Act is a testament to the type of man that Clay Hunt was — even after his death, his legacy of helping veterans lives on.
In America, our veterans and troops are still struggling. As a country, we must do more to help our veterans deal with injuries like post-traumatic stress and depression.
