00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.459
A November twenty-eighth, twenty twenty-three

00:00:02.459 --> 00:00:05.087
letter from David Medeiros to Congressman

00:00:05.087 --> 00:00:08.665
Jim Himes alleges Medicaid ABI Waiver and disability-rights failures.

00:00:08.665 --> 00:00:10.621
Treat it as constituent advocacy.

00:00:10.621 --> 00:00:13.082
Preserve seven fields: exact letter, sender, intended

00:00:13.082 --> 00:00:16.883
office, delivery method, receipt proof, requested action, and written disposition.

00:00:16.883 --> 00:00:19.398
Addressing a representative does not prove

00:00:19.398 --> 00:00:23.983
personal receipt, review, endorsement, investigation, referral, legislation, or corrective action.

00:00:23.983 --> 00:00:26.386
Separate firsthand account, legal conclusions,

00:00:26.386 --> 00:00:29.125
and claims about others.

00:00:29.125 --> 00:00:35.051
Congress has legislative and oversight functions; executive agencies administer programs and enforce law.

00:00:35.051 --> 00:00:37.958
Match each request to the office with authority.

00:00:37.958 --> 00:00:41.536
Label discrimination, neglect, corruption, financial mismanagement,

00:00:41.536 --> 00:00:47.126
and systemic failure as allegations unless established by verified evidence and an authorized process.
