Live from Capitol Hill: AMVETS to testify on VA contracting
At 1:30 this afternoon, AMVETS Deputy Legislative Director Christina Roof will testify before the House Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity on VA contracting procedures.

Roof's testimony will focus on VA's auditing procedures and recommendations AMVETS feels will make the process more equitable for veterans.
Roof testified at an earlier hearing before the subcommittee, outlining key shortfalls AMVETS had identified within the VA contracting system in relation to veteran-owned small businesses (VOSBs) and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs).
