After having watched Congress for the past couple of years, and seeing a lot of caregiver bills vanish into the abyss, I have decided that I want to take a closer look at it all this year, so, I have decided that I am going to watch what they do in terms of anything that effects family caregivers.  So, I am going to start looking at their work during the week and dissecting it here on this blog.

I will be taking the floor summary from the Office of the Clerk’s website and looking at the relevant parts here on Family Caregiver Info.  I had actually thought to do this back even before congress first convened, but trying to get the house heater repaired and working to earn a little money writing got in the way, now I am going to be working on catching up for the past week of Congress.

We will start with day 1 here and look at what they did.   You can find the Floor Summaries archived in the forum under 11th Congress, please feel free to join in discussion about the things that Congress is up to, particularly where it concerns family caregivers.
