The Clarion Ledger ran the story where senate voted against this bill.  However, it was revoted yesterday and the bill passed in the senate 30-19.

Also, contact your doctor's office. Mine is working on putting together an information packet, at this moment, to forward out to all of their clients to get them involved and for Governor Barbour.

It would be awesome for Mississippi to take the lead and the intiative in becoming the healthiest state in the Union!

Remember to call your state senator and representatives and thank them for their support.  It is very important that they stay supportive!

Hello all,

HB 1530 is a bill stating that bariatric surgery will be covered for state employees.  The bill has passed the house and the senate.  It is now headed to the governor for approval.  At this time, the governor is negative about the bill.  Please make calls to the governor's office stating your support of HB 1530.

Governor Haley Barbour's office

Thank you for your support of this bill.

Hello and Welcome! Let me say, I would "bother" with requesting a review because you never know. You might be the one they decide to approve. Get all the documentation you can from all the doctors you can, write a personal letter along with photos. Tell them your story and see what happens! Best of luck!
