At Sen . Jake Corman ’ s golf outing Dr . Andy Zimmerman , super lobbyist Peg Kuskin , Cheryl Schriner ( Chief of Staff to Sen . Judy Ward ) and Justin Leventry ( Chief of Staff to Sen .

We pursue every scenario in order to create the conditions by which we can achieve your legislative and regulatory goals . Your contributions to PADPAC are one of the vehicles that help us to attend fundraisers , meet with legislators and educate them on the issues that are important to you , your patients and your profession . This dynamic enables PDA to be effective , respected and ever present .
Ninth District met with their Sen . Dan Laughlin ( R-Erie ) to discuss AoB over dinner . Dr . Steve Radack , Dr . Marion Wolford , Dr . Kurt Dangl and Dr . Bill Morosky truly went the extra mile , and the persistence of Ninth District is to be commended . They faced a number of obstacles but overcame them all and lobbied their senator and he is now a co-sponsor of our AoB bill .
