James Lankford: “The VA, for instance, was still sending out medical records…”

“We want to be able to change the law and how we handle government shutdowns to make sure we don't waste 85 billion. And sometimes it's working with the administration. The VA, for instance, was still sending out medical records to veterans on CD ROM when they asked for their medical records. And of course, veterans would say, I don't have a CD rom. Who has a CD ROM in their computer anymore? So we work with the administration and VA to be able to change that.” (02:19–02:29)
