On ALTERNATIVE Or NON-TRADITIONAL CANCER THERAPIES and TREATMENTS by EMANUEL REVICI, M.D CONGRESSIONAL PUBLICHEARING BEFORE: CONGRESSMAN GUY V. MOLINARI on ALTERNATIVE or NON-TRADITIONAL CANCER THERAPIES and TREATMENTS BY EMANUEL REVICI, M.D. PRESENT: MICHAEL TORRUSIO DIANE CISMOWSKI, Court Reporter 26 Federal Plaza New York, New York March 18, 1988 9:55 o'clock a.m. MOLINARI 1 CONGRESSMAN GUY MOLINARI: This is Guy Molinari, representing the 14th Congressional District. We would like to get started here this morning. I have prepared a formal opening statement, which has probably been distributed, but I choose not to read that. Instead, let me set the record here by relating some of my prior experiences in a similar matter a couple of years back. It was a great learning experience for me, a very disturbing experience as well. Similar to what happened preliminary to this formal hearing today, several years ago our governmental agencies were instrumental in bringing pressure upon the Pan American Health Organization. In turn, it brought pressure upon the Bahamian Government, and the Bur­ ton clinic in Freeport, Bahamas, was closed. Some forty or fifty patients of Burton visited Washington and appealed to those of us that took time out of our day to listen to them to try to help. Now, I'm certainly not an expert in this field, but I do have a heart. I saw a look of panic in the faces of the people, and I made one promise to them that day, and that was to get down to Freeport and to see for myself what was going on. Through our State Department I made arrangements to go to the Island, and on the first day, with the help of the Embassy, to visit the Burton clinic. On the following day, I was supposed to take a plane and go over to Nassau and meet with the Bahamian Ministry of Health. There it was my goal to determine what specific reasons were being cited for the closure of the facility, and, of course, (what I was trying to determine), whether steps could be taken to satisfy the complaints and to determine whether the clinic could be reopened. What a surprise I was in for. The State Department set up the trip. I landed in Freeport. I met a gentleman from the Embassy, and I was quickly alerted to the fact that I would be able to visit the Burton clinic -and, in fact, did for about four hours- but the Ministry of Health had decided they were not going to meet with me the follow­ ing day. That puzzled me and nagged at me as well, because it wasn't a specific re­ quest from a Congressman from this country, but rather a visit that had been set up through the sponsorship of our State Department. I was angered and I called a press conference in Freeport. I couldn't unders­ tand why it was that we couldn't even have a dialogue, and, of course, I had made arrangements to turn around and go back home, convinced at that point that certain people in this country had brought pressure on the Bahamian Government so that we didn't have the meeting. You may all recall that the war cry that was being used at that time was AIDS, that Burton was causing AIDS to his patients. Indeed, we had Lester Maddox, who went on television, devastated and claiming he had AIDS that was caused by Burton. There were all kinds of 2 MOLINARI charges. I was watching them and reading them with great interest. We did this hearing. I received a letter subsequently from Lester Maddox, taking a totally different view, thanking me for what I did in conducting the hearing. He didn't have AIDS. There were so many misstatements made. I received a number of phone calls from the Establishment telling me how wrong it was for me to do what I was doing. After conducting a hearing that lasted for some eight or nine hours, I took the testimony, sent it to every member of Congress. I sent it to the New York State Medical Society. I sent it to the National Cancer Institute and others. I subsequently requested a meeting with the New York State Medical Society. There were about thirty-five doctors in the room that day, and, interesting­ ly enough, they had the minutes of the prior meeting there, and I asked them if I could read it. "Sure." I read the minutes, and what I read in part were statements indicating that in the case of Burton there was massive political pressure being brought upon members of Congress, and that we were responding to those mr,,sive pressures and would be going after the Medical Society to try to seek help. Well, that was pure poppycock. There were maybe only 500 patients there. There are 435 members of Congress, and what would we average one patient per Congressional District? But I learned that the information they were getting was not accurate. In­ deed, I was quite upset when my turn came to speak. I let them know how I felt about the thing. I must tell you that when I left at least three or four of those doctors very silently told me, "Keep going, keep doing what you're doing." "He's onto something." We did and were able to convince (by going to some influential members of Congress), the Office of Technology Assessment, OTA, to study alternative forms of cancer treatment, cancer therapy. There's a very high level physician who I knew from years ago, and I had occasion to talk to him one day, and he told me that the hammers of hell were coming down on his skull because of his involvement. All he was doing was not evaluating whether any of this therapy worked or didn't work; he was merely setting up the protocol for the testing and any other specific therapies. There again, he ran into this very powerful "Establish­ ment." We know that any of the doctors, M.D.' s, that have been supportive, and we learned this at the Burton hearing, were almost drummed out of the profession. Now, I cannot say that Burton's therapy works or doesn't work. That's far beyond my ability to make that judgment call. I did hear enough testimony, enough stories, and talked to enough patients, and I've been back to the clinic down there, to suggest that we should be look­ ing at that very carefully; and, indeed, a study will be bone. MOLINARI 3 Anybody in the audience who wants to tape-record what takes place here is free to do so. Anybody that wants to tape-record or take pictures may do so. I understand that some of you might have been present at the Food & Drug Administration hearing last week on the National Health Fraud Con­ ference, and you weren't free to take pictures or tape-record what was said that day; in fact, they had armed guards there that would escort you out of the room if you did so. That puzzles me and bothers me. Also, for the record I would like to make a statement that we've invited to this hearing the National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer [Society], the Food & Drug Administration, and they all turned down the request. We would really have preferred that we hear from both sides so that we could have a balanced hearing, and when we finish and have published a hear­ ing record, it would be preferable from my standpoint that we hear the pros and cons. But their view, obviously, is that they would be giving credence to Dr. Revici and his techniques by being here. So, to hell 1with them! They're not here and we're going to proceed without them. I know that Dr. Revici has been fighting with his lawyers to prevent his license from being taken away in this State. I just buried, less than thirty days ago, my mother-in-law, who died from cancer. My daughter is engaged to be married. The date is set for July 16th. Her doctors told her and told my daughter that she would be alive and well, well enough to participate in the wedding proceedings, but she, of course, died a month ago. The question was raised by my wife and by my daughter, "Why didn't you take her to Dr. Revici, why didn't you take her to Burton or somebody else?" And, of course, the question came to my mind as we thought about these hearings, that imagine if after having the Establishment diagnose that my mother-in-law was going to live past July 16th and be well enough to participate in proceedings, if she had gone to Revici or if she had gone to Burton and died now, I'm sure we'd have the charge that, "Well, look, you didn't listen to us, and, as a consequence, your mother-in-law didn't survive July 16th, as we said she would." So, I suspect that what we're seeing here is, to a large extent, a refusal for some people to want to look at this thing with open eyes. We're talking about a man whose been doing this for a long period of time, and we'll hear the testimony today. But I must tell you, my friends, I am not happy with my own experiences, having been through this before and knowing the incredible opposition that is generated, the misstatements of facts.

  • Remembering Guy Molinari (1928-2018)
    REMEMBERING GUY MOLINARI (1928-2018) For most Americans, the Holiday Season that begins with Thanksgiving and culminates on New Year's Eve is a time of celebration, reflection, and remembrance. Many thousands of Americans, in the Counting of their Blessings this year, will give Thanks to having had a Public Servant who made a positive impact on their lives and livelihoods. That person is former Congressman Guy Molinari, who departed this life on July 25 at the age of 89. If there is one word that comes to mind by those who had the privilege of having known Guy Molinari, that word is “Courage.” Courage is what Molinari exhibited when he joined the Marine Corps as a young man. At a celebratory stop at a bar in, ironically, Washington, D. C., en route to Basic Training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Molinari led his fellow recruits to walk out of that bar in protest of a racist bartender who refused to serve one of the young men in Molinari's group who was African-American. Once in the Corps, Molinari, armed with a Law Degree, stood up to superior Officers Indifferent or Hostile towards Justice. In the frozen fields of South Korea Molinari thus established a personal template that would guide him through the rest of his extraordinary life; he would be a champion of those falsely accused of wrongdoing. Molinari returned from the Korean War to his beloved Staten Island in 1953. It was there he turned to the practice of real estate law. The rule of law was a principle by which Molinari was raised; his Grand-parents had immigrated to the U.

    The Honorable Susan Molinari U.S. Representative of New York (1990–1997) Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript January 8, 2016 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. “We all bring our experiences to a discussion, and there are all different experiences, and so I did take very seriously the experience of being a female and bringing that to the discussion. I was not one of those people—sometimes I would go up to somebody and say they did this, and they’d be like, ‘I am not going to be the female legislator.’ And I totally respect that, but that was not me; I was going to be the female legislator. If there was something that was going on that was ticking me off with regard to women, anyplace, I was going to be the female. So, I took that very seriously. There was a reason I was there.” The Honorable Susan Molinari January 8, 2016 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biographies iii Interview 1 Notes 57 Abstract Raised in a political family, Susan Molinari’s relationship with her father, Congressman Guy Molinari, greatly influenced her road to Congress. As the only Republican on the city council of New York, and the daughter of a well-known politician, Molinari used her notoriety and experience to win a seat in the U.S. House. She made history as only the second daughter to directly succeed her father in Congress. Her youth and political lineage garnered the attention of the Republican Leadership and the respect of her colleagues.

  • Unconventional Cancer Treatments
    Unconventional Cancer Treatments September 1990 OTA-H-405 NTIS order #PB91-104893 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Unconventional Cancer Treatments, OTA-H-405 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1990). For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing OffIce, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form can be found in the back of this report) Foreword A diagnosis of cancer can transform abruptly the lives of patients and those around them, as individuals attempt to cope with the changed circumstances of their lives and the strong emotions evoked by the disease. While mainstream medicine can improve the prospects for long-term survival for about half of the approximately one million Americans diagnosed with cancer each year, the rest will die of their disease within a few years. There remains a degree of uncertainty and desperation associated with “facing the odds” in cancer treatment. To thousands of patients, mainstream medicine’s role in cancer treatment is not sufficient. Instead, they seek to supplement or supplant conventional cancer treatments with a variety of treatments that exist outside, at varying distances from, the bounds of mainstream medical research and practice. The range is broad—from supportive psychological approaches used as adjuncts to standard treatments, to a variety of practices that reject the norms of mainstream medical practice. To many patients, the attractiveness of such unconventional cancer treatments may stem in part from the acknowledged inadequacies of current medically-accepted treatments, and from the too frequent inattention of mainstream medical research and practice to the wider dimensions of a cancer patient’s concerns.

For the record, I am objecting to the permit for only this facility; I have no issue with any of the other recently constructed "in-city" NYPA power plants that concurrently received a Title V permit. As borough president of Staten Island, the Rosebank power plant is the one facility out of the 11 that necessitates an objection to this Title V air permit for one specific reason: it is the only one built directly across the street from residences.
