Commission members heard testimony from five different panels composed of state and local government officials, and representatives of veterans, military and civil service retirees, and the disabled. The 32 member commission, appointed by congressional leaders and the president, is seeking bipartisan agreement on longterm entitlement reform and structural changes to the tax system.
