According to Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz, “There has been much discussion in the media recently regarding Section 1233 of the legislation and the New York State Senate Committee on Aging is interested in separating fact from fiction. This legislation proposes to reform the way health care is provided in this country, and every effort must be made to ensure that the public has correct information. It is especially important to know how the proposed reforms will affect seniors.”
