This isnt about creating a New Washington system to how to figure out how to pay people to provide care. This is much more broadly, about how do we establish policies to allow patients and families to remain in control of their health care and health care decisions.

Have a Authority Issue the rules. I think 706 has been abused. And it should be returned to the original intent we help frame years ago. So i have difficulty with that part of the equation.

Does congressional staffers, im sure debbie can attest to, we are constantly living in his temporary environment because we have to...

Diabetes and hearst disease are now epidemics. Our Life Expectancy is declining. And Health Care Costs are soaring. 1. 4 trillion is the impact to our economy. The truth is, that this isnt completely our fault. Our diet has been hijacked by processed foods loaded with salt, sugar, fat, saercalories chemicals. If you had to catalog the worlds least Healthy Foods, this is what they have. There is a whole section of the country that cant make a good choice because they dont have a good choice. Why ...

And community are creating a new mural on the campus that will give the history the natural and hopefully sustainable history of the Richmond District and our city. Its really incredible, it includes Small Businesses to some of our big icons from the Richmond District all over, but especially a history and a beautiful telling of the story by third graders like noah and other students and all the parents that nurture them as well. Really, the mural will help exemplify the rich culture and diversi...
