36. No need to apologize

Mon Jun 19, 2017, 02:44 PM

Jun 2017

I sometimes feel like the American people have lost their way myself. As a disabled American, I cannot praise you enough for standing up for those of us with disabilities. You are all too right about how the home health care system can be taken advantage of by unscrupulous companies. There was a major scandal in regard to this just recently in my own small town. Best of luck in outing your former employer and seeing that justice is served!
