Message from Michael Gamel-McCormick:
Senators Casey, Wyden and Schumer, along with Senators Murray, Duckworth, Brown and Hassan, and Representatives Dingell, Pallone, Schakowsky and Matsui will soon introduce the bicameral Better Care Better Jobs Act. The Better Care Better Jobs Act will make President Biden’s bold vision to expand home and community-based services (HCBS) infrastructure, a key component of the American Jobs Plan, a reality.
If your organization would like to be listed as a supporting organization of the bill, please email: josh_kramer@aging.senate.gov.
For questions about the policy, contact Liz Dervan, Keith Miller, Michael Gamel-McCormick, Tim Huebner, or Rick Van Buren.
We hope that your organization will support this transformative piece of legislation. Thank you.
Michael Gamel-McCormick
Disability Policy Director

Sen. Bob Casey, Chair
