Rayilyn Brown Director AZNPF Arizona Chapter National Parkinson Foundation [log in to unmask] From: rayilynlee Sent: Wednesday, July 29, 2009 6:33 PM To: parkinsn Cc: chew nee kong ; Janet Vernon ; Tonetta Toulouse ; Carol Zadel ; Pat ; Jeff Hahn ; Carol Helt ; ray shay ; Marilyn Bennett ; Ordell Nelson ; Don Reed ; Peggy Willocks ; Linda Herman ; Yvonne Perry ; Dara Hunt ; Christie Woodward Subject: killing old people by now most of you must know that the latest criticism against HR 3200 is that it would result in the government "killing old people", reference Rep. Virginia Foxx, Republican - North Carolina, statement before the House of Representatives 7-28-2009. it is my understanding that this charge stems from a section in the bill that deals with living wills. I think it is Subtitle B, Section III, but I cannot take notes anymore. maybe a Care Giver who has the use of his/her hands could find it or the clause that calls for killing old people. http://docs.house.gov/edlabor/AAHCA-BillText-071409.pdf thanks, Ray Rayilyn Brown Director AZNPF Arizona Chapter National Parkinson Foundation [log in to unmask] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
