The House Science and Technology Committee will hear Senate Bill 148, the Saving the Cure Act, tomorrow, Monday, April 9 at 2:00 p.m.  Representative Tom Rice has agreed to carry the bill for me in the House.

The legislation continues to draw support from across political parties and ideologies.  Dustin Brookshire, who wrote about the bill a month ago at his left-of-center blog, just posted this very strong endorsement of the bill. 

The Morehouse School of Medicine also recently offered its support of the bill, joining the Medical Association of Georgia, Georgia Society of Clinical Oncology, Georgia Osteopathic Medical Association, American College of Pediatricians, Georgia Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Sickle Cell Anemia Association and Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia in backing Senate Bill 148.
