Thank Senators Bennet and Udall for Their Efforts to Ensure Rural Healthcare Providers' Need are Addressed by the Senate

As part of the ongoing budget discussions, Colorado Senators Michael Bennet and Mark Udall, and New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich, have put forward Amendment 612 to the proposed Senate budget to ensure that rural healthcare providers' needs are addressed by the Senate. The amendment, which can be viewed by clicking here, makes sure that the budget passed by the Senate has needed flexibility to extend rural health programs and create others. Voting on this and all other amendments to the proposed budget, is ongoing.  The Colorado Rural Health Center and the National Rural Health Association encourage you to thank Senators Bennet and Udall for their support of rural providers (click on the links to email your support).
