As you all know by now, HB1291 passed the Health Innovation Committee by a 4-3 vote, and SB2654 passed Senate Banking & Insurance unanimously. The House bill will be heard next in Healthcare Council, not sure if that will be next week or the week after, but I’ve listed the members below for contact. It would be preferable to try and set some face-to-face meetings at district offices, in addition to the emails, phone calls and faxes to these members.

The Senate bill is going to Health Policy next, and its members are listed below as well.
