In relation to H.R. 911, here is why both political parties have serious mental handicaps (I call it lackingcommonsenseitis). Do you see this map?
This map should look completely different. The map should be ENTIRELY BLUE! As far as I am concerned, those who voted against H.R. 911 had two reasons.
The first reason, used by Virginia Foxx of North Carolina's 5th district, is that Ms. Foxx used to operate a residential treatment center. She said it in the House hearings, which Kathryn Whitehead and Jon Martin-Crawford both participated.
The second reason, used by everyone else, is that Republicans saw this issue as a pet project of the far-left. They lumped H.R. 911 into the rest of the stuff that comes from the far-left, save the whales, stop carbon emissions, don't test on animals, you get the picture. The marketing for our organization to those center or right on the political spectrum is miserable. Utterly miserable.
Please, write your congress(wo)man. Let them know how residential treatment has impacted you or someone you know. Do not allow these corrupt, out of touch loons with no real-world experience get away with such injustices. Hold them accountable, when you vote for your House representative, ignore the little letter next to their name. Read their record and vote based off what the law says.
