Have you seen what the anti-patient-fairness Insurance Companies spent gobs of $$ on to spread lies? We may not have $50 million to waste like they do, but we do have the TRUTH on our side. We "fixed" their fancy flyer for them...

The medical compensation cap set in 1975 & never adjusted stands in the way of justice and accountability for patients harmed by medical negligence in California.
@CA_Dem delegates please support the Fairness for Injured Patients Act.
