Spring Forward: Bringing the MD-CARE Act to Life - PPMD Community

Spring Forward: Bringing the MD-CARE Act to Life - PPMD Community: "Despite great odds in a political climate that was stacked against us – we achieved what was considered to have been impossible. After months of outreach to congressional champions and visits to Capitol Hill, the MD-CARE Act Amendments were passed and signed into law in the end of 2014.
Now what? Well… now the real work of implementation actually begins.
But the truth is that our community has so successfully built champions and partners across the federal agencies over the last two decades, that the implementation of the MD-CARE Amendments started long before the bill ever passed. Our federal partners ‘anticipated’ its passage and began to implement aspects of what was being called for in the new law, even before Congress was telling them they had to."
