Debate on Wittman Arlington National Cemetery Amendment

May 24, 2012
Rep. Rob Wittman speaks in support of his amendment on accountability at Arlington National Cemetery. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the measure authored by Congressman Rob Wittman (VA-1) to bolster the structure of leadership at Arlington National Cemetery (ANC). The measure places a commissioned officer of the United States Military in Charge of Army National Cemeteries, which includes ANC, to provide for greater accountability following the reports of mismanagement that surfaced in 2010.
