This may be more of a comment. I love to nerd out on procedure whenever I have an excuse to.
Even if a committee makes an amendment that might otherwise have been deemed beyond the scope, it is only struck out if that issue is brought to the attention of the Speaker. If all parties agree to make an amendment.... I know that you made the case in your testimony that this is well within the scope of the bill, but that only becomes a problem if one of the parties decides to bring it to the attention of the Speaker and argues for the exclusion of that item. It only becomes a problem if there are people around the table who are objecting to it.
I want to ask you about the experience of people with disabilities in general accessing public services and health care and other kinds of public services. It's important to me, and I think it should be important to all of us, that people have their dignity affirmed when they are accessing services and that they're treated equally. Can you share in general terms how you would see the experience of people with disabilities raising issues or seeking public services interacting with the health care system? How would you evaluate how those experiences are, based on what you're hearing from your members?
