After GAO report Rep. Michaud calls for commitment to end homeless vets
Washington D.C.- With veterans living on the streets at night,its unacceptable to have a shortfall of nearly 10,000 beds for homeless veterans," said Rep. Michael H. Michaud,Ranking Democratic Member of the House Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on health in reaction to the GAO report.

"The GAO report clearly indicates the gaps in service exist and we are leaving behind veterans who are sleeping on the streets ,under bridges,in alleys and in cars. We must- and can-take steps to prevent and end homelessness amoung veterans,"said Michaud.

We must end homelessness for all Americans Now by Monkeyman
