BRACK: An open letter to  Sen. Renee Unterman

By Elliott Brack | FEB. 22, 2019  — Now, Renee. Don’t run for the Seventh District seat in Congress.

Gwinnett County, Buford, and the state need you in the Georgia Senate, where you will remain much more effective than you would as a freshman representative in the House of Representatives in Washington.

BRACK: Sen. Unterman now supports Medicaid expansion program

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher, GwinnettForum | State Sen. Renee Unterman of Buford, who heads the Georgia Senate Health and Human Services Committee, may soon be writing legislation which could help hospitals, especially smaller hospitals within Georgia. She has changed her views on the subject, and now supports Medicaid expansion because of hospital closings in the state and because of problems that residents are having getting to see a doctor. She first stated these views in Modern Healthcare, a national magazine out of Washington, D.C.
