"In this time of severe economic distress, high unemployment, bailouts and bankruptcies, your Advocacy Committee had a lot to say to our representatives and senators in Washington, DC. On May 18 and 19, ASHHRA Advocacy Committee members from across the country traveled to our nation’s capitol to for two days of legislative action and had over 30 meetings with members of congress and staff. We presented the ASHHRA and the AHA position to them on several key issues and had an opportunity to listen to them tell us what they were hearing from their many constituents. We also offered our practical expertise to them as resources during the course of the next year and beyond."
