English subtitles for clip: File:President Trump Signs the Veterans Affair Choice and Quality Employment Act of 2017.webm

1
00:00:00,500 --> 00:00:01,330
David Shulkin: Good
afternoon, everybody.

2
00:00:01,334 --> 00:00:02,904
I know it's a busy day.

3
00:00:03,770 --> 00:00:06,440
But we appreciate
having the opportunity

4
00:00:06,439 --> 00:00:08,139
to recognize

5
00:00:08,141 --> 00:00:10,111
yet another tangible
improvement

6
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:11,950
that we're making for
our country's veterans,

7
00:00:11,945 --> 00:00:13,515
those who have served.

8
00:00:13,513 --> 00:00:15,513
And today, in just
a few minutes,

9
00:00:15,515 --> 00:00:17,155
the President's
going to be signing

10
00:00:17,150 --> 00:00:20,550
the VA Choice and
Quality Employment Act.

11
00:00:21,388 --> 00:00:23,388
This is a really
important piece

12
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:24,690
of legislation

13
00:00:24,691 --> 00:00:25,991
and I do want
to recognize

14
00:00:25,992 --> 00:00:28,962
that this was passed
with bipartisan support

15
00:00:28,962 --> 00:00:30,262
in both the house
and the Senate.

16
00:00:30,764 --> 00:00:32,034
And I also want to thank

17
00:00:32,031 --> 00:00:33,831
our veteran service
organizations,

18
00:00:33,833 --> 00:00:35,433
who were there,

19
00:00:35,435 --> 00:00:37,235
helping us get
this important piece

20
00:00:37,237 --> 00:00:39,507
of legislation
passed for veterans.

21
00:00:39,506 --> 00:00:41,246
Many of them
are here today,

22
00:00:41,241 --> 00:00:43,041
others are not able
to join us today.

23
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:47,247
The VA Choice and
Quality Employment

24
00:00:47,247 --> 00:00:49,847
Act has three
important components.

25
00:00:49,849 --> 00:00:53,919
The first is that,
this helps us expand

26
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,320
our ability to hire
medical center directors,

27
00:00:56,322 --> 00:00:58,162
and other senior
executives

28
00:00:58,158 --> 00:00:59,588
to serve in the VA.

29
00:00:59,592 --> 00:01:01,992
This is about leadership,
and it's really important

30
00:01:01,995 --> 00:01:03,195
that we get
the right leaders

31
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:06,096
helping us to do
the job for veterans.

32
00:01:06,099 --> 00:01:08,339
The second is that
this bill

33
00:01:08,334 --> 00:01:12,304
authorizes 28
new facilities leases,

34
00:01:12,305 --> 00:01:15,605
that will be in different
parts of the country,

35
00:01:15,608 --> 00:01:18,178
that provide our veterans
with updated facilities.

36
00:01:18,178 --> 00:01:19,148
Something that again,

37
00:01:19,145 --> 00:01:20,445
we are committed
to providing

38
00:01:20,447 --> 00:01:22,717
our veterans
with world-class care.

39
00:01:22,715 --> 00:01:24,585
And third,
and most important,

40
00:01:24,584 --> 00:01:26,584
this bill allows us
to continue

41
00:01:26,586 --> 00:01:29,656
to be able to provide
care in the community,

42
00:01:29,656 --> 00:01:30,926
for our veterans,
to make sure

43
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:32,894
that they're getting
high-quality care,

44
00:01:32,892 --> 00:01:34,092
not waiting for care.

45
00:01:34,894 --> 00:01:36,334
Already this year,

46
00:01:36,329 --> 00:01:38,529
in the first six months
of this year,

47
00:01:38,531 --> 00:01:42,201
we have authorized over
15 million appointments

48
00:01:42,202 --> 00:01:44,242
for veterans
in the community.

49
00:01:44,237 --> 00:01:45,907
That's four million
appointments

50
00:01:45,905 --> 00:01:49,545
more than what
was experienced

51
00:01:49,542 --> 00:01:51,142
at this time last year.

52
00:01:51,144 --> 00:01:52,814
So, we're making
a lot of progress

53
00:01:52,812 --> 00:01:54,582
in expanding choice.

54
00:01:54,581 --> 00:01:56,751
This is really
a temporary fix.

55
00:01:56,749 --> 00:01:58,689
We still have more work
to do with Congress.

56
00:01:58,685 --> 00:01:59,855
And with the
President's support,

57
00:01:59,853 --> 00:02:02,123
we have to collapse
eight different ways

58
00:02:02,121 --> 00:02:03,861
of paying for
community care

59
00:02:03,857 --> 00:02:06,727
into a single program,
and simplify it.

60
00:02:06,726 --> 00:02:08,896
To make it easier
for veterans to use,

61
00:02:08,895 --> 00:02:10,635
and to work better
for veterans.

62
00:02:10,630 --> 00:02:12,930
And I know, with this
President's commitment

63
00:02:13,466 --> 00:02:14,936
to our country's
veterans,

64
00:02:14,934 --> 00:02:16,874
and his support that we're 
going to get that done.

65
00:02:16,870 --> 00:02:20,270
This is important to him,
this is important to me,

66
00:02:20,273 --> 00:02:22,173
and important
to our veterans.

67
00:02:22,175 --> 00:02:24,275
And so, it just gives me
great pleasure today,

68
00:02:24,277 --> 00:02:27,317
to be able to introduce
the 45th President

69
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:29,253
of the United States,
Donald Trump.

70
00:02:30,016 --> 00:02:32,016
Mr. President.

71
00:02:44,898 --> 00:02:46,798
The President: Well,
thank you very much.

72
00:02:46,799 --> 00:02:50,239
As you know this was
a small press conference,

73
00:02:50,236 --> 00:02:52,336
but a very important one.
And it was scheduled

74
00:02:52,338 --> 00:02:53,878
to talk about
the great things

75
00:02:53,873 --> 00:02:56,113
that we're doing
with the Secretary

76
00:02:56,109 --> 00:02:57,809
on the Veterans
Administration.

77
00:02:58,578 --> 00:03:00,148
And, we will talk about

78
00:03:00,146 --> 00:03:02,716
that very much
so a little while.

79
00:03:02,715 --> 00:03:05,085
But I thought I should
put out a comment

80
00:03:05,084 --> 00:03:07,254
as to what's going on
in Charlottesville.

81
00:03:07,253 --> 00:03:10,493
So, again, I want to thank 
everybody for being here.

82
00:03:10,490 --> 00:03:11,960
In particular,
I want to thank

83
00:03:11,958 --> 00:03:13,758
our incredible veterans.

84
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,800
And thank you fellows.
Let me shake your hand.

85
00:03:38,251 --> 00:03:39,751
Great people.
They're great people.

86
00:03:41,220 --> 00:03:43,160
But we're
closely following

87
00:03:43,156 --> 00:03:45,326
the terrible events unfolding

88
00:03:45,325 --> 00:03:46,725
in Charlottesville,
Virginia.

89
00:03:47,927 --> 00:03:51,027
We condemn in the
strongest possible terms,

90
00:03:52,265 --> 00:03:54,335
this egregious
display of hatred,

91
00:03:54,334 --> 00:03:56,604
bigotry and violence,

92
00:03:56,603 --> 00:03:59,143
on many sides,
on many sides.

93
00:03:59,973 --> 00:04:02,043
It's been going on for a
long time in our country;

94
00:04:03,576 --> 00:04:05,746
not Donald Trump,
not Barack Obama.

95
00:04:07,347 --> 00:04:09,417
It's been going on
for a long, long time.

96
00:04:10,883 --> 00:04:12,323
It has no place
in America.

97
00:04:12,819 --> 00:04:15,889
What is vital now
is a swift restoration,

98
00:04:16,789 --> 00:04:17,559
of law and order,

99
00:04:17,557 --> 00:04:19,857
and the protection
of innocent lives.

100
00:04:21,194 --> 00:04:23,734
No citizen should ever
fear for their safety,

101
00:04:25,298 --> 00:04:28,338
and security,
in our society.

102
00:04:28,334 --> 00:04:34,774
And no child should ever be 
afraid to go outside and play,

103
00:04:34,774 --> 00:04:38,814
or be with their parents
and have a good time.

104
00:04:40,246 --> 00:04:42,416
I just got off the phone
with the governor

105
00:04:42,415 --> 00:04:43,885
of Virginia,
Terry McAuliffe.

106
00:04:44,784 --> 00:04:46,854
And we agreed that
the hate and the division

107
00:04:47,754 --> 00:04:49,454
must stop,

108
00:04:49,455 --> 00:04:51,595
and must stop right now.

109
00:04:52,925 --> 00:04:54,925
We have to come together
as American's,

110
00:04:54,927 --> 00:04:58,627
with love for our nation,
and true affect --

111
00:04:58,631 --> 00:05:01,571
and really, I say
this so strongly,

112
00:05:01,567 --> 00:05:04,737
true affection
for each other.

113
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,079
Our country is doing very
well in so many ways.

114
00:05:09,075 --> 00:05:10,675
We have record,

115
00:05:10,677 --> 00:05:14,217
just absolute
record employment.

116
00:05:15,581 --> 00:05:17,921
We have unemployment,

117
00:05:17,917 --> 00:05:21,257
the lowest it's been
in almost 17 years.

118
00:05:21,754 --> 00:05:25,124
We have companies pouring
into our country.

119
00:05:25,792 --> 00:05:28,092
Foxconn,
and car companies,

120
00:05:28,094 --> 00:05:29,394
and so many others.

121
00:05:29,395 --> 00:05:31,635
They're coming back
to our country.

122
00:05:32,665 --> 00:05:34,235
We're renegotiating
trade deals,

123
00:05:34,233 --> 00:05:35,733
to make them great
for our country

124
00:05:35,735 --> 00:05:37,235
and great
for the American worker.

125
00:05:39,105 --> 00:05:42,275
We have so many
incredible things

126
00:05:42,275 --> 00:05:43,505
happening in our country.

127
00:05:44,444 --> 00:05:47,244
So, when I watch
Charlottesville, to me,

128
00:05:47,246 --> 00:05:49,516
it's very very sad.

129
00:05:50,817 --> 00:05:53,457
I want to salute the
great work of the state

130
00:05:54,353 --> 00:05:56,193
and the local police
in Virginia.

131
00:05:56,189 --> 00:05:58,159
Incredible people.
Law-enforcement,

132
00:05:58,157 --> 00:05:59,627
incredible people.

133
00:05:59,625 --> 00:06:01,425
And also,
the National Guard.

134
00:06:02,328 --> 00:06:05,468
They've really
been working smart,

135
00:06:05,465 --> 00:06:07,535
and working hard.

136
00:06:07,533 --> 00:06:09,273
They've been doing
a terrific job.

137
00:06:09,268 --> 00:06:11,368
Federal authorities
are also providing

138
00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:12,970
tremendous support
to the governor.

139
00:06:12,972 --> 00:06:14,672
He thanked me for that.

140
00:06:14,674 --> 00:06:15,844
And we are here
to provide

141
00:06:15,842 --> 00:06:18,082
whatever other
assistance is needed.

142
00:06:18,077 --> 00:06:19,617
We are ready,
willing and able.

143
00:06:21,147 --> 00:06:23,547
Above all else, we must
remember this truth.

144
00:06:24,417 --> 00:06:28,517
No matter our color,
creed, religion,

145
00:06:28,521 --> 00:06:29,921
or political party,

146
00:06:29,922 --> 00:06:33,422
we are all
Americans first.

147
00:06:36,095 --> 00:06:40,735
We love our country.
We love our God.

148
00:06:40,733 --> 00:06:42,573
We love our flag.

149
00:06:42,568 --> 00:06:44,008
We're proud
of our country.

150
00:06:45,037 --> 00:06:46,407
We're proud
of who we are.

151
00:06:47,974 --> 00:06:51,144
So, we want to get
this situation

152
00:06:53,012 --> 00:06:54,582
straightened out
in Charlottesville.

153
00:06:55,181 --> 00:06:57,181
And we want to study it.

154
00:06:57,984 --> 00:06:59,754
And we want to see
what we're doing wrong

155
00:06:59,752 --> 00:07:00,452
as a country,

156
00:07:00,453 --> 00:07:02,223
where things like
this can happen.

157
00:07:02,221 --> 00:07:05,221
My administration
is restoring

158
00:07:05,224 --> 00:07:06,824
the sacred bonds
of loyalty,

159
00:07:06,826 --> 00:07:09,796
between this nation
and its citizens.

160
00:07:10,797 --> 00:07:13,867
But, our citizens,
must also restore

161
00:07:13,866 --> 00:07:15,736
the bonds of trust
and loyalty

162
00:07:16,369 --> 00:07:18,839
between one another.

163
00:07:18,838 --> 00:07:21,078
We must love each other,
respect each other,

164
00:07:21,073 --> 00:07:24,943
and cherish our history,
and our future together.

165
00:07:25,812 --> 00:07:28,952
So, important. We have
to respect each other.

166
00:07:29,715 --> 00:07:31,415
Ideally, we have
to love each other.

167
00:07:32,985 --> 00:07:35,255
And now, to the Veterans
Administration,

168
00:07:35,254 --> 00:07:37,154
where I'm so proud
of David Shulkin

169
00:07:37,156 --> 00:07:38,256
and the job you've done.

170
00:07:38,257 --> 00:07:40,357
What you've done in such
a short period of time.

171
00:07:40,359 --> 00:07:42,699
I think you folks
would attest to it.

172
00:07:43,362 --> 00:07:44,802
If anybody disagrees,

173
00:07:44,797 --> 00:07:46,067
you can leave
the room right now.

174
00:07:46,065 --> 00:07:49,305
But, David really has.

175
00:07:49,302 --> 00:07:51,672
He's a star, for what
he's been able to do.

176
00:07:51,671 --> 00:07:53,811
So, David, I would like
to thank you very much.

177
00:07:54,707 --> 00:07:55,537
For the leadership,

178
00:07:55,541 --> 00:07:57,641
and for the profound
improvements

179
00:07:58,344 --> 00:08:00,484
to the VA services,

180
00:08:00,479 --> 00:08:03,149
that you've made in such
a short period of time.

181
00:08:03,149 --> 00:08:05,519
Today is another
milestone in our work

182
00:08:06,085 --> 00:08:07,655
to transform the VA,

183
00:08:08,487 --> 00:08:11,157
where we're doing
record-setting business.

184
00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:12,857
Including,

185
00:08:12,859 --> 00:08:14,799
something called
the Accountability Act.

186
00:08:15,728 --> 00:08:17,628
Where David
and his executives

187
00:08:17,630 --> 00:08:20,770
can now hold people
accountable

188
00:08:20,766 --> 00:08:24,566
for doing a poor job
and say you're fired.

189
00:08:24,570 --> 00:08:27,110
You do a poor job for our
veterans, you're fired.

190
00:08:27,907 --> 00:08:30,007
That's been in the making
for 40 years,

191
00:08:30,009 --> 00:08:31,279
they weren't able
to get it approved.

192
00:08:31,277 --> 00:08:34,447
One of our
legislative successes.

193
00:08:34,447 --> 00:08:37,017
Frankly, one of our many
legislative successes.

194
00:08:37,016 --> 00:08:39,386
We got it approved,
and I know David,

195
00:08:39,385 --> 00:08:41,255
it's making life
a lot better,

196
00:08:41,254 --> 00:08:43,824
and people are working a
lot harder because of it.

197
00:08:44,891 --> 00:08:46,691
In a few moments,
I will sign the VA

198
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:51,202
Choice and Quality
Employment Act of 2017.

199
00:08:51,964 --> 00:08:53,134
This bill will ensure,

200
00:08:53,132 --> 00:08:55,272
that veterans continue
to have the ability

201
00:08:55,268 --> 00:08:57,208
to see the doctor
of their choice,

202
00:08:57,203 --> 00:08:58,803
so important.

203
00:08:58,804 --> 00:09:00,774
And don't have to
wait or travel

204
00:09:00,773 --> 00:09:02,213
long distances for care.

205
00:09:02,208 --> 00:09:04,848
And during the campaign
I kept talking about it.

206
00:09:05,912 --> 00:09:09,812
People, these great,
incredible veterans,

207
00:09:09,815 --> 00:09:11,615
our finest.

208
00:09:11,617 --> 00:09:14,887
They're waiting in line
for seven days,

209
00:09:14,887 --> 00:09:17,027
nine days, 14 days.

210
00:09:17,990 --> 00:09:20,530
For ailments that
could be fixed quickly.

211
00:09:20,526 --> 00:09:23,966
And they end up
dying of things

212
00:09:23,963 --> 00:09:27,203
that could be taken care
of, very very routinely.

213
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,200
And I said, that's never
going to happen

214
00:09:29,201 --> 00:09:30,571
when I'm President.

215
00:09:30,569 --> 00:09:32,939
And I said,
even at the time,

216
00:09:32,939 --> 00:09:36,279
before having tremendous
research given to me.

217
00:09:36,275 --> 00:09:37,845
And after the research
was given,

218
00:09:38,477 --> 00:09:41,277
it was still back to the
same basic common sense.

219
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,880
Why can't they go out
and see a doctor?

220
00:09:43,683 --> 00:09:45,183
If they have to wait
seven days,

221
00:09:45,184 --> 00:09:46,484
or 14 days online,

222
00:09:46,485 --> 00:09:48,255
why can't they
see a doctor?

223
00:09:48,254 --> 00:09:50,594
And we'll pay for
the cost of the doctor.

224
00:09:50,589 --> 00:09:52,359
And that's going to be
a lot less expensive.

225
00:09:52,358 --> 00:09:54,228
But, more importantly,

226
00:09:54,226 --> 00:09:56,096
you're going to
have immediate

227
00:09:56,095 --> 00:09:57,835
medical care
for our veterans,

228
00:09:57,830 --> 00:09:59,530
and that's what
we're doing.

229
00:09:59,532 --> 00:10:00,762
And they're very
very thankful.

230
00:10:01,467 --> 00:10:04,367
And it started already.
Quite a little while ago,

231
00:10:04,370 --> 00:10:06,540
considering we're a very
young administration.

232
00:10:07,206 --> 00:10:08,976
And I think, you see
from the veterans.

233
00:10:08,975 --> 00:10:10,915
They're very very proud
of it, and very happy.

234
00:10:12,044 --> 00:10:14,414
Very importantly,
this bill also authorizes

235
00:10:14,413 --> 00:10:17,513
new community-based
outpatient clinics.

236
00:10:17,516 --> 00:10:19,686
And improves
the VA's ability

237
00:10:19,685 --> 00:10:21,625
to hire quality
job candidates.

238
00:10:21,620 --> 00:10:23,260
We're getting candidates

239
00:10:23,255 --> 00:10:26,155
that are of
the highest quality,

240
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:28,399
into the VA system now,

241
00:10:29,228 --> 00:10:31,268
so that our veterans
have more choices,

242
00:10:31,263 --> 00:10:33,003
and more access

243
00:10:32,999 --> 00:10:36,069
to the absolute best
possible care.

244
00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:39,469
I want to thank
Congressman Phil Roe,

245
00:10:40,473 --> 00:10:42,013
Senator Johnny Isakson.

246
00:10:42,008 --> 00:10:46,048
They, two people, have
been working so hard.

247
00:10:47,046 --> 00:10:50,786
Senator Dean Heller, for
their dedicated efforts

248
00:10:50,783 --> 00:10:52,783
to get this bill
through Congress,

249
00:10:52,785 --> 00:10:58,455
was very very tough
for reasons

250
00:10:58,457 --> 00:11:01,527
that I guess
I understand.

251
00:11:01,527 --> 00:11:03,067
But it was not easy.

252
00:11:03,696 --> 00:11:06,866
And I will tell you,
that Phil, and Johnny,

253
00:11:06,866 --> 00:11:11,006
and Dean worked very very
hard to get it through.

254
00:11:11,704 --> 00:11:14,274
And by the way,
I can also say others,

255
00:11:14,774 --> 00:11:16,544
and even some democrats.

256
00:11:16,542 --> 00:11:18,142
You want to say
their names?

257
00:11:18,144 --> 00:11:20,144
Go ahead,
say their names.

258
00:11:20,746 --> 00:11:22,246
David Shulkin:
Senator Tester,

259
00:11:22,248 --> 00:11:24,818
and Representative Walz
were key

260
00:11:24,817 --> 00:11:26,487
in helping us get
this done, Mr. President.

261
00:11:28,521 --> 00:11:30,421
The President:
See? I can do it.

262
00:11:32,658 --> 00:11:33,898
But people fought,

263
00:11:34,527 --> 00:11:35,757
and they really
fought us hard.

264
00:11:35,761 --> 00:11:37,161
And now
the administration

265
00:11:37,163 --> 00:11:39,433
is fighting for you.

266
00:11:39,432 --> 00:11:40,662
We're working
night and day

267
00:11:40,666 --> 00:11:42,806
to ensure
our brave veterans

268
00:11:42,802 --> 00:11:45,042
are provided with
world-class treatment.

269
00:11:45,037 --> 00:11:45,937
Which is what
they're getting,

270
00:11:45,938 --> 00:11:47,538
world-class treatment.

271
00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:49,980
And by the way, again,
we're here

272
00:11:49,975 --> 00:11:51,715
for just a little more
than six months.

273
00:11:52,778 --> 00:11:54,678
You're seeing it
on a daily basis,

274
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,780
get better,
and better, and better.

275
00:11:56,782 --> 00:11:58,422
And you're hearing it
from the veterans.

276
00:11:59,585 --> 00:12:02,855
But they're getting this
great medical treatment,

277
00:12:03,389 --> 00:12:05,529
care procedures,

278
00:12:05,524 --> 00:12:08,294
and we're getting
our facilities shaped up,

279
00:12:09,128 --> 00:12:11,628
and made into
world-class facilities

280
00:12:11,630 --> 00:12:12,970
at the same time.

281
00:12:12,965 --> 00:12:16,765
So, our great veterans,
deserve only the best,

282
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:20,470
and that's exactly
what they're getting.

283
00:12:20,473 --> 00:12:22,343
I want to thank everybody
for being here.

284
00:12:23,075 --> 00:12:26,515
Especially, the wonderful
veterans behind me.

285
00:12:26,512 --> 00:12:29,112
They've helped us
so much,

286
00:12:29,115 --> 00:12:30,485
they're
spectacular people.

287
00:12:31,317 --> 00:12:33,617
And again, going back
to Charlottesville,

288
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,720
we have to heal the
wounds of our country.

289
00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:38,723
These are wounds that
have been going on

290
00:12:38,724 --> 00:12:41,564
for really a long time.

291
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:44,500
And I thought,
and everybody thought,

292
00:12:44,497 --> 00:12:48,197
and everybody wants it to
heal, and it will heal.

293
00:12:48,801 --> 00:12:51,701
And we're going to make
every effort possible,

294
00:12:52,404 --> 00:12:54,344
to make sure that
that healing procedure

295
00:12:54,340 --> 00:12:57,540
goes as quickly
as possible.

296
00:12:57,543 --> 00:12:59,643
I love the people
of our country,

297
00:12:59,645 --> 00:13:02,615
I love all of the people
of our country.

298
00:13:03,215 --> 00:13:05,655
We're going to make
America great again,

299
00:13:05,651 --> 00:13:07,321
but we're going
to make it great

300
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,820
for all of the people,

301
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:12,156
of the United States
of America.

302
00:13:12,158 --> 00:13:13,688
Thank you very much,
thank you.

303
00:13:13,692 --> 00:13:14,492
(inaudible)

304
00:13:14,493 --> 00:13:16,493
The President:
Thank you everybody.

305
00:13:32,511 --> 00:13:33,381
The Press:
Mr. President,

306
00:13:33,379 --> 00:13:36,419
how do you respond
to white nationalists who say

307
00:13:36,415 --> 00:13:38,015
they're participating
in Charlottesville

308
00:13:38,017 --> 00:13:39,517
because they support you?

309
00:13:39,518 --> 00:13:40,688
The President:
They'd like me to sign

310
00:13:40,686 --> 00:13:42,556
the bill here,
instead of outside.

311
00:13:42,555 --> 00:13:43,825
So, I think
we'll do that.

312
00:13:43,822 --> 00:13:44,892
Okay? Thank you.

313
00:13:53,432 --> 00:13:55,072
Big question is who's
getting the pen, David?

314
00:13:55,935 --> 00:13:56,935
David Shulkin:
Uh, well --

315
00:13:56,936 --> 00:13:58,066
Male Speaker:
CBI.

316
00:13:58,070 --> 00:13:59,240
The President:
Who's getting the pen?

317
00:13:59,238 --> 00:14:02,808
Come on, you folks
argue about it okay?

318
00:14:02,808 --> 00:14:05,048
(inaudible)

319
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:25,600
(Applause.)

320
00:14:25,598 --> 00:14:26,628
David Shulkin:
I think we're

321
00:14:26,632 --> 00:14:27,732
going to give it to --

322
00:14:27,733 --> 00:14:29,803
The President:
Ladies first. Right?

323
00:14:29,802 --> 00:14:30,672
Female Veteran:
Thank you, sir.

324
00:14:30,669 --> 00:14:31,539
Thank you, Mr. President.

325
00:14:34,073 --> 00:14:34,943
The President:
Okay.

326
00:14:34,940 --> 00:14:35,840
Thank you very
much everybody.

327
00:14:36,742 --> 00:14:37,542
Appreciate it.
