Robert Wilkie, President Trump’s nominee to lead the Veterans Affairs Department, testified before the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee. He answered questions on several issues facing the VA, and addressed a Washington Post story about his participation in events several years prior in connection with the Sons of Confederate Veterans group. He said he welcomed scrutiny of his entire record, and disputed the Post piece, claiming it did not include consideration of his work from the past 25 years. close
