H.R. 3790 Introduced by Congressman Kendrick Meek


This week, H.R. 3790 was introduced by Congressman Kendrick Meek (D-FL).  This is a budget neutral, bi-partisan bill that would repeal the DMEPOS Bidding Program.

While New Jersey is not in any of the Round One MSA's of the DMEPOS Bidding Program, it is in Round Two.  There is the very real potential that 13 out of New Jersey's 21 counties will be affected by this program.  

 

The JAMES Board of Directors realizes the devastating affects that this program will have on New Jersey and is asking all JAMES member companies to contact their legislators to co-sponsor H.R. 3790.

As of December 9, 2009, there are 97 co-sponsors signed onto H.R. 3790.  Representative Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ-2), Representative Steven Rothman (D-NJ-9) and Representative Donald Payne (D-NJ-10) have signed onto this legislation as co-sponsors.

Please continue to urge your representatives to support this legislation!
