Rep. Katie Porter Fights for Accountability in Organ Recovery, Grills Lobbyist

  • Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs) are supposed to swiftly retrieve organs from donors. Yet, they're often havens for waste and abuse, in part because they can manipulate data to escape accountability, while vacationing on private jets-literally.
    Congresswoman Katie Porter (CA-45) called out an industry lobbyist for this during a recent Oversight Committee hearing.

      No no no. While I agree with you that she's awesome, people like her and Senator Warren can't be President because it would take them away from doing what they do best, which is holding all of these institutions' feet to the fire. Presidents are too busy with the big picture. We need people that can go after the banks, the for profit schools, the for profit prisons, the CEO's and the executives that are bilking the public out of billions of dollars with their schemes. We just need to make sure that people like Ms Porter have a very long, very successful career in the House and Senate.

Another reason I just revel in the fact that so many people - most notably her OWN colleagues (like Maxine Waters) in her OWN party - lose their sh*t over a former college professor who uses a mini white board to make her points clear to all listeners, which is what SHE (and technically EVERY congressperson) is “compensated for.” PROVING my point of “the power of the pen” (and, by extension, the WHITE BOARD as well)!

    Thank you for bringing light to this. My dad had a heart transplant so this is a very big deal to our family. The sad thing is if you don't have the money to pay for the rejection medicine you don't get a transplant. They go over your financials before you're put on the list and that is so so wrong. Medicare paid 80% of a seven-figure cost for the transplant but only one or two did it help out on the rejection medicine. My family has been blessed we're not millionaires by any means but the buckle down and made sure my dad had his medicine each month and one month I picked it up and 30 day supply 30 little pills cost over $2,800. That is not right.

They went to make sure you don't get it organ and then can't afford the necessary medicine and end up dying because of it. That's the real problem. Hospital that did the transplant was great about hey do you want to set up a payment plan would $40 $50 a month be okay. My mom's like yeah. Of course more was paid but the point is they were willing to work with them whereas drug companies don't care they're going to charge what they want to charge and the heck with you if you can't afford it.

      @@chezmoi42 There isn't much difference, especially among those towards the middle. A few general ones: personal responsibility vs. government size and purpose/ Religious freedom versus the secular state/ pure freedom versus social responsibility/ are a few big ones but those happen in the Dems as well. But if your asking why a republican doest just join the democrats if they disagrees with the GOP, then the answer is practical. the Dems have too big a tent and the reps com from rural or underserved areas, and don't wanna dive into being an unheard minority in the country. There are no democrats that run in my tiny hometown in texas, and I shake hands with republicans if that makes sense. so if we were run by Dems, we would be forgotten. Side note, If the Dems broke up into say a Moderate joe Biden Conservative party and a democratic socialist Bernie party, I know many people that would jump over.
