    1234 Massachusetts Avenue, NW • Suite 103 • Washington, DC 20005 • 202-347-1234 #100-33 Information Alert: October 11, 1988 Medicaid Reform House Hearing TO: DD Council Executive Directors FROM: Susan Ames-Zierman On September 30, 1988, Congressman Henry Waxroan held a hearing on his bill, H.R.5233, and that of Congressman Florio, H.R. 3454, which is the House companion bill to Senator Chafee's S. 1673, the Medicaid Home and Community Quality Services Act. Mr. Waxman's opening statement is enclosed. Attached is testimony given by Congressman Steve Bartlett of Texas, Senator Chafee, and the Congressional Budget Office. Also enclosed is a side-by-side comparison of the two bills and current Medicaid law developed by the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress.. Senator Bentsen has agreed to mark up Senator Chafee's bill early in the 101st Congress. Should Senator Bentsen become the Vice-President, Senator Matsunaga of Hawaii would become Senate Finance Committee Chairman and would, in all likelihood, be agreeable to moving forward. Congressman Waxman, while not going as far as to discuss mark-up on either his or Florio's bill, did agree, in both his opening and closing statements, to work with Congressman Florio on a compromise early in the next Congress. A list of current co-sponsors of the Chafee/Florio bills is attached. We need to keep all those returning Senators and Congressman on-board when this process begins anew in January. For those in your Congressional delegations who are not current co-sponsors, plan some visits to programs while they are home campaigning this fall and over the holidays.

  • Laura Miller-Oral History
    Laura Miller-Oral History Chase: I guess we will start from the beginning. You were born in Baltimore, right? Laura: Yes, born in Baltimore. Chase: You didn’t grow up there though. For most of your childhood, you moved around a lot of states in the northeast. Correct? Laura: Right. My dad was in retailing, and he started out in Baltimore where he grew up, and he worked at a store called Hamburgers, which was a clothing store. Then he moved to Filene’s in Boston, which was a well-known department store until 2005 when it became Macy’s. That’s why we moved up to the Boston area. So we lived just outside of Boston in a suburb called Stoneham for a short time; then we got a house in Concord, Massachusetts. Technically West Concord, Massachusetts, which is the more middle- class part of Concord, Massachusetts. So we got a house there, and I lived in Concord, Mass. until 8th grade, and then in the middle of 8th grade we moved to Stamford, Connecticut. That’s where I went to high school. Chase: Moving around, was that difficult for you? You have younger siblings, right? Laura: I have a younger brother and a younger sister. It was only difficult because I left in the middle of 8th grade, and my parents had gone through a divorce. So my safety net, my psychological safety net was a group of girlfriends of mine from middle school. One of them especially, who I played guitar with. We played James Taylor songs, and I wore blue suede boots, and I thought I was very cool.
