Dirty Laundry

The Textile Rental Services Association has a suggestion for VA officials looking for cash to make up that embarassing $1 billion budget shortfall: Quit washing your own sheets. “I believe the private sector can save the [Veterans Health Administration] money on its laundry services,” said Michael Potack, the organization's chairman. “That, in turn, could enable the agency to reapply that revenue to veterans’ health care. It’s that simple.”
