  • Hit- Alyse Galvin Has Taken Fourteen-Thousand Dollars In
    Hit- Alyse Galvin has taken fourteen-thousand dollars in campaign contributions from Nancy Pelosi and her Leadership PAC, even after Galvin promised Alaskans she would not support Pelosi as Speaker. Backup: In 2018, Galvin Promised Not To Support Pelosi For Speaker: • During The 2018 Campaign, Galvin Said She Would Not Support Pelosi For Speaker And Said She Wanted “New Leadership.” “Galvin won the Democratic primary for the right to face off against the 23-term incumbent but identifies as an independent. Should she win and come to Washington, Galvin says she will caucus with Democrats, much like Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Angus King of Maine, but will remain unaffiliated. Her campaign made clear she will not be supporting House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for speaker and instead wants ‘new leadership.’” (Margaret Kriz Hobson, “Political Novice Has Sights On Don Young,” E&E News, 10/5/18) However, During The 2020 Campaign Cycle, Galvin Has Since Received $14,000 In Contributions From Pelosi: Editor’s Note: PAC To The Future is Nancy Pelosi’s Leadership PAC, according to the Center For Responsive Politics. • On June 26, 2020, Nancy Pelosi For Congress Contributed $4,000 To Galvin’s Campaign. (Alyse For Congress, Federal Election Commission, Accessed 09/10/20) • On June 26, 2020, Nancy Pelosi’s PAC, PAC To The Future Contributed $10,000 To Galvin’s Campaign. (Alyse For Congress, Federal Election Commission, Accessed 09/10/20) • PAC To The Future is Nancy Pelosi’s Leadership PAC, according to Citizens For Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

  • A Bipartisan Letter to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi And
    May 28, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: Thank you for your swift action and continuing efforts as we grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (PL 116-136) provided our physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists with much-needed and meaningful aid to continue patient care operations during this pandemic, the effects of which could be felt for years. However, while Congress is diligently working to protect these important medical practices, they are being targeted for a sizeable cut that is slated to be finalized within the next few weeks. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) final CY2020 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule rule published in November 2019 proposed increased rates for the office-based evaluation and management (E/M) code set in CY2021. Due to the requirement for budget neutrality, this would result in a projected eight percent cut for therapy services beginning on January 1, 2021. If these cuts are allowed to go into effect, they will be devasting and will limit access to care for patients, including seniors, who rely on these services. Ultimately, these cuts will force physical and occupational clinics to close, resulting in thousands of qualified professional clinicians, especially those in rural and urban areas in our districts, to lose their jobs.
