Wisconsin Association for Home Health Care Announces 2019-2020 “Friend of Home Health Care” Recipients Designation Bestowed on Select Group of Legislators

July 16, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Wisconsin Association for Home Health Care Announces 2019-2020 “Friend of Home Health Care” Recipients Designation bestowed on select group of legislators (Madison, WI) – Today, the Wisconsin Association for Home Health Care (WiAHC) announced its 2019-2020 “Friend of Home Health Care” recipients. The designation is meant to publicly identify Wisconsin State Legislators that supported the expanded utilization of home health care as an effective, affordable option for post-acute care. The 2019-20 “Friend of Home Health Care” recipients include the following legislators: Rep. Jimmy Anderson Sen. Dale Kooyenga Rep. Chris Sinicki Rep. David Bowen Rep. Scott Krug Rep. Ken Skowronski Rep. Rob Brooks Sen. Chris Larson Rep. John Spiros Rep. Jonathan Brostoff Rep. Amy Loudenbeck Rep. Mark Spreitzer Sen. Tim Carpenter Rep. Nick Milroy Rep. Lisa Subeck Rep. Dave Considine Rep. Jeff Mursau Rep. Rob Summerfield Rep. Barbara Dittrich Rep. Beth Myers Sen. Lena Taylor Rep. Steve Doyle Sen. Steve Nass Sen. Patrick Testin Rep. James Edming Rep. Warren Petryk Rep. Jeremy Thiesfeldt Rep. Jodi Emerson Rep. Sondy Pope Rep. Ron Tusler Rep. Mary Felzkowski Rep. Melissa Sargent Rep. Don Vruwink Sen. Dan Feyen Sen. Patty Schachtner Rep. Chuck Wichger Rep. Cody Horlacher Rep. Katrina Shankland “These legislators were critical to our legislative success and championed our most important priorities,” said Lisa Kirker, Chair of the WiAHC Board of Directors. “Home health care agencies across Wisconsin are grateful for the support and partnership of these individuals.” WiAHC was very active during the 2019-2020 legislative session in educating legislators on the workforce issues facing home health care agencies and how increasing MA reimbursement rates can alleviate financial burden as well as attract new staff. WiAHC was successful in advocating for the introduction of Assembly Bill 447/Senate Bill 416, which aimed to increase MA reimbursement rates by 10% for home health visits. The bill received a public hearing in the Senate Health Committee, and WiAHC is hopeful there will be continued interest in the legislation next session. WiAHC also successfully advocated for legislation that allowed all MA reimbursable services to be conducted via telehealth. WiAHC is a membership-based association that represents home health care agencies and their staff. WiAHC helps to support the common interests of its members to promote home health care as a quality, cost-effective health care option in our state. Home health care services are not the same as personal care services. Home health care services are medical, skilled nursing services as opposed to personal care services administered by non-health care professionals. ### .

Various Legislators
July 29, 2020 The Honorable Chief U.S. District Judge James D. Peterson U.S. District Court Western District of Wisconsin 120 North Henry Street, Room 320 Madison, WI 53703 Honorable Judge Peterson, We would like to invite you to join us on a tour of Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake Schools for juveniles this coming fall. In July of 2017, you issued an order in the case of former inmates at the facilities represented by the American Civil Liberties Union vs. Lincoln Hills, Copper Lake and Department of Corrections officials. The order instituted drastic reforms in permissible disciplinary actions and changed the procedures of operations at the schools. We respect that the ruling made at the time was done so to protect the rights and safety of the inmates housed at the facilities. As is the case with all complex decisions, unintended consequences are unavoidable. Restrictions stemming from the federal decree, compounded by other factors, have caused Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake to deteriorate into an unstable and traumatizing workplace. The pandemic only exacerbated the difficulties there, with programming pauses and staff turnover contributing to an explosion of violent activity in 2020. In a petition of “No Confidence against all Administration of Lincoln Hills/Copper Lake and the Department of Juvenile Corrections” union employees expressed that in the last six months of 2020, compared to the first six months of the year: staff injury went up 4700%, youth/staff battery went up 117%, sexual misconduct went up 75%, and use of force incidences went up 58%. We urge you to join us on a visit to the facilities and speak with the staff there about their day-to-day experience working under the federal decree.

1027 S. 5th Street Milwaukee, WI 53204 Ph: 414-643-1620 Fx: 414-643-1621 www.vdlf.org 4 hechos sobre la propuesta de ley antiinmigrante y discriminatoria de John Spiros AB 190 Un proyecto de ley para que la policía y los empleados públicos actúen como agentes de inmigración. La versión del Senado es SB275 Patrocinado por Rep. Spiros, Sen. Nass, Sen. Vukmir y otros 1. La ley antiinmigrante de Spiros separaría las familias inmigrantes, promovería el perfil racial y convertiría la policía local en una rama de la máquina de deportación. AB 190 prohibiría pólizas comunitarias en la seguridad pública que tienen como objetivo crear confianza entre la policía local y diversas comunidades. 2. La ley antiinmigrante de Spiros haría que los miembros de la comunidad – incluyendo las víctimas y los testigos de delitos y sobrevivientes de violencia doméstica – tengan miedo de denunciar los crímenes, haciendo que todo el mundo sea menos seguro. 3. La ley antiinmigrante de Spiros separaría familias inmigrantes de Wisconsin, trastornaría la economía e causaría que personas salgan del estado. 4. La ley antiinmigrante de Spiros prohibiría a los gobiernos locales de impedir a sus empleados a interrogar y detener miembros de la comunidad por ser inmigrante. AB 190 quiere convertir a los empleados judiciales y empleados de los municipios, incluso a los maestros en agentes de deportación. ¡Llame a estos electos y exíjales que bloqueen la ley antiinmigrante y discriminatoria de Spiros!

4 Facts About John Spiros' Discriminatory, Anti- Immigrant Bill AB190
1027 S. 5th Street Milwaukee, WI 53204 414-643-1620 www.vdlf.org 4 facts about John Spiros’ Discriminatory, Anti- Immigrant Bill AB190 AB190 would have public employees and local law enforcement act like Immigration agents The companion bill in the Senate is SB275 Sponsored by Rep. Spiros, Sen. Nass, Sen. Vukmir, and others 1. The Spiros Anti-Immigrant Bill would separate Wisconsin immigrant families, encourage discrimination and racial profiling, and make local law enforcement an arm of the Trump deportation machine. AB190 outlaws common sense community policing that aims to build trust between police and diverse communities. 2. The Spiros Anti-Immigrant Bill makes victims and witnesses of crime and domestic violence survivors afraid to report crimes, making all less safe. 3. The Spiros Anti-Immigrant Bill would prohibit local governments from keeping their employees from interrogating community members about their immigration status and arresting people for deportation. AB190 aims to turn courthouse clerks, City Hall employees, and teachers into Immigration agents. 4. The Spiros Anti-Immigrant Bill will would disrupt the economy and lead immigrant workers, homeowners, and business owners to leave. According to the American Immigration Council, if all undocumented immigrants left Wisconsin, the state would lose $2.6 billion in economic activity, $1.2 billion in gross state product, and 14,579 jobs.
