<description>I intent to do everything I can to support this bill and to encourage my representatives in Congress to support it.

I have a personal interest in this matter.  A friend of mine had a mastectomy and I brought her home from the hospital with a drain in her chest.  Her college-age son cared for her, changed her dressings and comforted her. Would our legislators and health insurance executives like to see their wives and daughters treated like this?  I think not.

This legislation has been submitted for passage year after year since 1997.  Last year it finally passed the House of Reps, but the Senate FAILED to vote on it before the session ended.  This is SHAMEFUL!  

I hope Americans everywhere will let their voices be heard on this issue.  The health insurance companies must be regulated by the law when the health and welfare of patients is at stake....</description>
