VA MANAGEMENT, UNION LEADERS SABOTAGE PRIVATE CARE OPTION, THEN CALL FOR REPEAL: Department of Veterans Affairs leaders in management and the employee union fought Congress when it adopted the Choice Card program in 2014 allowing veterans to get private care when a government facility couldn’t provide it within 30 days.

Now, the Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group’s Luke Rosiak reports, there is substantial evidence VA  management and unionized workers purposely mismanaged the program because they fear it threatens their jobs. And guess who is pushing Congress to repeal the program? Lesson: When Big Government feels threatened, everybody in it puts aside differences and defends it.
