The chief of the VA and the chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee will discuss changing the troubled agency in Denver today. VA Secretary Robert McDonald and Rep. Jeff Miller of Florida will speak at a Disabled American Veterans convention. Miller sponsored a bill passed by the House that would make it easier to fire or demote VA workers. It's awaiting Senate action. The White House has threatened a veto.
