Speaking up

I’ve been busy all weekend writing up my story because I was invited to speak at my MN Representative Betty McCollum’s Health Care Listening Session on Wednesday, September 24th, 2025 at 11:00am CST. The listening session will be livestreamed on Representative McCollum’s YouTube.

Here’s more about the session from Representative McCollum:

Tune in to my livestreamed listening session… featuring a panel of expert voices representing Minnesota’s diverse health care community. This session will provide critical updates on recent developments at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the implications of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), a law passed earlier this year with only Republican support. With an estimated 20,000 Minnesotans in the Fourth District at risk of losing health care coverage, including seniors, people with disabilities, children, and working parents, I am committed to making sure these stories can be told.

Ready to make my voice heard!
