Thank you to 4x World Series Champion and Yankees Legend Bernie Williams for performing tonight’s National Anthem. @bw51official performed as part of his role in @boehringerus Tune In To Lung Health campaign to raise awareness for interstitial lung disease.
Additionally, Bernie was joined at the Stadium by Le Roy Torres and his wife, Rosie, the founders of Burn Pits 360, a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving post-deployment health outcomes for current and former military members. They work with those who are suffering from emerging, complicated, or unexplained health concerns – including interstitial lung disease.

In my very first term in Congress, I helped lead a bill to prevent discrimination against disabled Americans who need organ transplants.
Today, the House voted to advance legislation that would do exactly that.
No one should be denied life-saving care because of a disability.
