Lawmakers frustrated with ‘bureaucratic incompetence’ as VBA struggles with overdue benefits changes

Summary: It's been 15 months since the Forever GI Act became law. But the Veterans Benefits Administration's IT systems still aren't capable of handling the new payments to veterans furthering their educations. Now it looks like they still won't be functioning when the spring semester arrives. That's not sitting too well on capitol hill. Lawmakers called in VBA leadership to explain the shortfalls, and how they intend to rectify them. Federal News Network's David Thornton joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss lawmaker concerns.
