If the GOP debate a couple weeks ago was any indication, veterans are not at the top of the agenda for many Republican presidential candidates. To position rectify this slight, Jeb Bush will reveal his platform for reforming the Department of Veterans Affairs tonight while addressing Concerned Veterans for America in South Carolina.

As with any major political platform, Bush’s plan to help veterans was made public before his big address. Here’s the short version of how Bush would reform the Department of Veterans Affairs if he were elected president in 2016:

– Minimize the troop sequestration started by President Obama and restore the military’s strength

– Allow more veterans to choose their doctors without cutting funding for VA hospitals

– Save money by cutting “excess administrators” and firing poor performing employees

– Grant veterans better online access to VA services by overhauling its websites

–  Support congressional bill that would allow veterans to use their GI Bill benefits as a small business loans

Another part of Jeb’s grand plan has less to do with whipping the VA into shape and more with changing how the country embraces its military veterans.

One obstacle to a successful transition from military to civilian life is the stereotype of the wounded, helpless vet overcome with issues like anxiety and post-traumatic stress. Many well-intentioned programs have unintentionally fed into the narrative of the “broken hero.”…Restoring the respect that veterans have earned requires national leadership, and Jeb is well positioned to offer precisely that. This will be a priority of his first term in office and beyond.
