Senator Ted Kennedy: A Member of the NAMI Family
Date:8/26/2009

ir Housing Act expansion to include people with disabilities
  • "Ticket to work" provisions under Social Security disability programs
  • Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA), including restrictions on insurance limitations for pre-existing conditions
  • Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act
  • "Wounded Warrior" act to improve access to mental health services for National Guard and Reserve forces

    • For more than three decades, Senator Kennedy has been a voice for universal health care coverage and reform.

    His voice, perspective and wisdom will be greatly missed in the critical health care debate that is now before the nation.

    Congress could do no greater honor than to pass meaningful health care reform this year -- building on his legacy.
