Twenty organizations advocating for veterans and military families on Wednesday called on President-elect Donald Trump to retain Bob McDonald as secretary of Veterans Affairs, citing his stable leadership during the largest management transformation in the department’s history.
The groups, which included Got Your 6, AMVETS, and the National Military Family Association, said McDonald’s efforts to modernize the VA are “showing early signs of success in the form of a better veteran experience, and if continued, we believe they have the potential to eventually make VA a model agency.”
