Photos From House Hearing Of Commission Report by McClellanVet (created on )Gallery | Comments 
Here are a few pix from yesterday's
big event at the House Veterans
Affairs Committee.

The Senate Hearing is October 17th
at the Dirksen Bldg. Please note
that Senate chairman Daniel Akaka
attended the full House Committee
session yesterday and observed how
happy and supportive the audience
side of the Gallery was to these
Commissioners, and we are hoping
that visual impression left with him
will carry over into the Senate review
in a few days.

There will be live video and audio coverage
of the Senate hearings this Wednesday
at 9:30am. What I cannot tell you is
whether or not the VDBC Commission
will be heard first or the Shalala-Dole
Commission. The order of them appearing
is not clear just yet.

On the day of the hearing in the morning,
do as follows:
http://www.senate.gov
select COMMITTEES on the top tab
select and click on Veterans Committee
on the Left Menu, select and click on
HEARINGS
scroll downward on the page and find
UPCOMING HEARINGS
select and click on VA and DOD review
hearing at October 17, 9:30am

On the Transcript Page on the day
of the hearing, you will see a full
list of the introductory speeches
by the Senate members and the list
of panelists to appear. At the TOP
of that Transcript Page, there should
be a LINK to click on to activate the
video and audio for your Internet
access.If you have any trouble connecting,
call the Senate Committee at
202-224-9126.

This should be straight forward for
you and work just fine.
Stay tuned here at VFJ for photos
and reports when I get back later
this week.


UPDATE NOTE: THE HOUSE VETERANS
AFFAIRS COMMITEE HAS NOW POSTED

CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS, AND THE
