DURYEA, LUZERNE COUNTY, Pa. — Mehmet Oz pitched his medical background and conservative values to veterans Friday, calling a vote for him a rejection of the “status quo” that he blamed for many of the issues veterans face.
He pledged to push to increase access to mental health resources, reduce backlogs at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and fight for “medical freedoms.”
“If you’re not happy with where we’re headed, I’m the guy for change,” Oz said at a roundtable event at the VFW in Duryea.
