Residents rally to protect Beckley VA Medical Center
Bluefield residents led by Priscilla and James Crigger urge veterans to oppose CARES Commission plans to cut Beckley VAMC services. They warn loss would force local patients to private hospitals or a five hour drive to Richmond. Senators Rockefeller Byrd and Rep Rahall pressed CARES to preserve inpatient care for about 15,000 enrolled veterans and 40,000 served in the region.
