Senators Relied on Stories from PRCH Physicians

December 3, 2009

When they spoke on the Senate floor in support of the Mikulski amendment, Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) each read a story from a physician constituent about a patient who died from cervical cancer. PRCH provided these stories to the senators. Read Senator Feinstein’s speech, Senator Merkley’s speech, and our complete collection of physician stories about the need for insurance coverage of reproductive health care.
