1) Not sure I should deign reply to this ad-hominem attack, but here: I worked for Sen. Slom during the 2015 and 2016 legislative sessions. Sam is also a dear friend, like extended family, and I was a patient advocate for him at Kaiser this spring. That's our "relationship." I deny and resent your allegations as to anything sordid. Proof confirms. While we're on the topic, what's your personal relation to Chang? But if we've kept to objectives, it shouldn't matter.
2) Breathtakingly false! I won't name names, as you confirm I shouldn't, lest it get my favorite scrupulous, independent-minded senators in trouble. So you think it's healthy that one chairman determine all votes?
3) Allowing experimental medicine to terminal patients. Note audits, initiative & term limits too.
4) a) Yes, with Ward, Hashem & Thielen.
4) b) Several million.
5) Threatened by grammar? Most all my cohort in the Princeton English Dept. loved grammar nazis...so "no one"? False again.
