February 2014 lcmsfl.org Volume 38 Issue 2 Bulletin Page 3 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE: by Peggy Mouracade, MD Legislative issues are highlighted in our Bulletin this month. I have to admit I had been more of the mind of Thomas Paine in that “Government, even it its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.” However, a testimony to age and hopefully wisdom, my mindset has evolved to the realization that whatever one’s attitude is towards government that being an ostrich just isn’t going to cut it. With the ACA or “Obamacare” we now have to deal with healthcare being first and foremost; one cannot but be aware of this piece of legislation and how wide reaching and potentially encompassing it has and can become, particularly, to our profession. Hard to believe that is was passed over 3 years ago and continues to divide Congress and the nation. As a delegate to the Florida Medical Association, I realize that there is a desperate need to have educated minds, and I’m forever thankful that they are, who are willing to be involved in the legislative process that ultimately leads to shaping our laws. Far from being supportive of Obamacare, the number of physicians serving in Congress is at its highest in nearly a century, with this bloc possibly growing in numbers after the 2014 election. In the 113th Congress, 20 physicians have seats, with 16 in the House of Representatives, 1 as a delegate and 3 in the Senate. In the Senate, all 3 are Republicans; the last Democrat was in 1969 as a result of a failed election attempt. Senate elections in the upcoming year may possibly maximize the number to 5, as Georgia and Louisiana both have physicians in the running. From 1789-1900 there were a total of 41 Senators as physicians and from 1900 to present there have been only 11. There was a 26 year draught occurring until 1995 when Dr. Bill First was elected from Tennessee. On the state level, there are 2 physicians in our legislative branch and both are in the House. Rep. Ronald Renuart, DO, is a family practice physician from Ponte Vedra Beach and was elected in 2008. Among his current committee assignments are those to the Health and Human Services Committee and to the Health Innovation Subcommittee. Rep. Cary Pigman, MD, is an emergency room physician from Avon Park and was elected in 2012. His current committee assignments include Vice Chair of Select Committee on Health Care Workforce Innovation as well as Select Committee on PPACA (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act). Our state Senate President is Don Gaetz, although not a physician, does have a deep healthcare background as he previously worked in hospital administration and in addition cites personal experience as a motivating factor to keep healthcare in his focus. For those of us who are not aspiring politicians, I think it is in our best interest to become more informed and involved. Your county and state medical societies offer great sources of information, opportunities and resources The LCMS staff are experienced and ready to help answer, clarify or provide direction on most questions and issues as they arise. Dr. F. Rick Palmon, MD is our committee chair for legislative issues and also is a great resource. Don’t forget to take advantage of your general and specialty societies, as they too have experienced staff steeped with resources.

This response is submitted by the undersigned counsel on behalf of Friends of Trey Radel, Inc. ("Committee") and Barbara Bisriette, Treasurer, in response to the Complaint designated as Matter Under Review 6699. The Complaint in this matter was filed by Sheiyl Wooley, the campaign manager for Chauncey Goss, who ran against Mr. Radel in the Primary election for the Republican nomination to Congress from the 19''' Congressional District ("CD") in Florida. The Complaint alleges that the Committee sent a solicitation to Ms. Shirley A, Wood of Cape Coral, FL 33914, sometime in September of 2012. Further, that Shirley A. Wood is a fictitious name used in salted FEC reports filed by the Goss campaign, using the true address of Ms. Wooley. The Committee was shocked and surprised to receive the Complaint alleging a violation of 2 U.S.C §438(a)(4) and 11 C.F.R. §104.15 (a). At no time did the Committee sanction; suggest or knowingly use any information obtained from FEC reports for the purpose of soliciting contributions to the Committee.

Where there there is is no no law, law, neither neither is there is there violation violation. A Research Project – March 2014 Foreword The Right Reverend Thomas E. Breidenthal, D. Phil., Bishop The Diocese of Southern Ohio Convener of the Task Force on Racial Profiling Almost two years have passed since we learned of the death of Trayvon Martin. There can be no question that racial profiling was a factor in this tragedy. This connects Trayvon's death to the experience of countless African-Americans of all ages, especially African-American males, who continue to be suspected of criminal intent at every turn. Of course, racial profiling of any group implies racial profiling of everybody: people who look Mexican or Central American are profiled as illegal immigrants, while people of European descent are profiled as law-abiding. Yet in this country it falls to men of African descent to be profiled as dangerous. This is as true within the church as outside of it. We are taught as followers of Jesus to see Christ in the face of everyone we meet. But the first thing we see is race, and then whatever we pin on race, whether positive or negative.

  • Opening Statement of the Honorable Matt Salmon (R-AZ) House
    Opening Statement of the Honorable Matt Salmon (R-AZ) House Committee on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere Hearing on “Overview of US Interests in the Western Hemisphere: Opportunities and Challenges” February 28, 2013 (As Prepared for Delivery) Good morning, and welcome to our first hearing of the Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, where we will be exploring the opportunities and challenges the U.S. faces in the region. When I returned to Congress this year, I was privileged to rejoin the Foreign Affairs Committee and honored to have been given the gavel of the Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere. As a native Arizonan, I know what many of my colleagues have yet to realize, our neighbors in the Western Hemisphere are critical to U.S. security, energy independence and economic prosperity. I believe that our strong cultural, trade and investment relationships and demographic ties with Canada and the Americas connect the region and open the way to constructive dialogue on how to make our hemisphere safer and more prosperous. First of all, let me welcome the Subcommittee’s distinguished new Ranking Member, Congressman Albio Sires who represents the 8th Congressional District of New Jersey. I look forward to working with you on a bipartisan basis to help foster positive results for U.S. foreign policy in the region. In addition, to our returning Senior Members of the Committee, it is my pleasure to give a warm welcome to our Freshman Majority Members, Ron DeSantis and Trey Radel, both of whom hail from the great State of Florida. And although not new to Congress I would like to welcome two new additions to the Subcommittee on the Minority side of the aisle, Theodore Deutch and Alan Grayson, also both from the great State of Florida.
