I wrote a letter to my senator (Booker) during the ACA/Ombamacare battle while I was in cancer treatment.

He read it on the senate floor.

I was at a lot of the rallies, sometimes on stage.

Later my insurer cut off my chemo dosage & refused appeal. The senator’s office & ombudsman intervened

Kudos the recipients of the Craig H. Neilsen Foundation Visionary Awardees! The recipients Victor Calise, Carmen Daniels Jones, and Vincent Pierce all will receive a $1M unrestricted grant.
They will make the world a better place for people living with spinal cord injuries.
