Autism insurance parity killed in Committee

February 27, 2009

I am disappointed.  I realize this is the worst time to be trying for new legislation.  But what is most disappointing is that they did pass through a bill that is more detrimental to families with autism.  We had so much support of Shayan’s Law in both House and Senate.  To see the competing bill go through, disappointment.  I have been disappointed in our public officials for a long time.  This just makes it so much more personal.  However, I feel more committed now than ever to fight the good fight.  And, now that so many autism parents have been organized, we have a strong force to make some things happen for our children.  Let’s not lose our momentum.  Let’s let our policy makers know how disappointed we are in them and how much we expect them to do the right thing for children with autism!
