I'd like to point out some of the great stats in 117th Congress that are currently being overlooked. We have a record no. of: Female Reps. @ 118; Black/African American Reps. @ 58; Latin Sens. & Reps. @ 44 (as a latino, I'm most proud of the last one!)

19% of Americans live in a rural area, while only 2% of urologists practice in those same areas. #HR944 would help to fix this lack of access to specialized care!

DYK that 53.8% of urology residents have more than $150,000 in student loan debt! Listen to this great podcast with David B. McKinley and Josh Langston discussing a way to address this serious issue.

.Metro Forward Your poor planning and execution of shuttles during this redline shutdown makes me want to drive myself! Try dedicated buslanes so it doesn't add an extra 45-1 hour to my commute just to get to Fort Totten!
