Did anyone get the email I sent last
week?? We have a legislative hearing on autism and insurance coverage
THIS THURSDAY in
I know some of you may think I must be an
eccentric millionaire with nothing better to do, but it’s pretty far from
the truth: I have to work at my job, too, and I have the same excuses all of
you have, but I’m going to be there anyway because it’s important

Hope to see you there Thursday.
Please email me ASAP if you plan to testify. If you can’t go, I
need all written testimony no later than 3:00 p.m. Wednesday.
Thanks,
