Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance expressed support for expanding veterans’ ability to use private doctors in a podcast interview this week.
During an appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show released Wednesday, Vance was asked by the host, a former Navy SEAL who said he stopped using the Department of Veterans Affairs after one try, whether he would consider privatizing veterans’ health care.
“I think I’d consider it,” replied Vance, a former enlisted Marine who deployed to Iraq in a public affairs role.
