President Donald Trump has long promised to prioritize veterans. "We love our veterans," he said in February. "We are going to take good care of them." After the Department of Veterans Affairs began shedding employees and contracts, Trump's pick to run the agency, Secretary Doug Collins, pledged, "Veterans are going to notice a change for the better." But dozens of internal emails obtained by ProPublica reveal a far different reality. Doctors and others at VA hospitals and clinics across the country have been sending often desperate messages to headquarters detailing how cuts will harm veterans' care. The VA provides health care to roughly 9 million veterans.
