Thank you to all the witnesses for their very thoughtful presentations.
I'd like to start with Mr. Gage, not only because he's from my hometown but also because he's with an organization I chaired for many years and am very proud of. Thank you.
You made so many points in so little time. I just want to start with your risk assessment point.
You said the law doesn't consider both workplace exposure and non-workplace exposure. I think this was your third point. You thought the word “non-occupational” should be removed from the statute because it doesn't take into account people who have exposure both at home and in the workplace. Do I have that right?
