Two senators are pressing defense officials on continued concerns about housing for military families with disability-related needs.
They want to know, for example, how many military families have had to pay out of pocket for changes to their on-base housing — such as drop-down rails or ramps — in the past 10 years, and how many families have had to pay to undo the changes when they moved out of their homes.

Hi Joe. Financial difficulties and housing difficulties can lead to separations and divorces and even suicides! I sometimes wonder where the brains of our supposed "public servants" are. Usually (always?) their brains are figuring out how they can win the next election and, therefore, stay in power.
