Fischbach Introduces Bill To Stop Minimum Staffing Rule For Nursing Homes

Minnesota Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach has introduced legislation that would prohibit the Department of Health and Human Services from implementing the Biden Administration’s minimum staffing rule.  The 7th District Republican says “the Biden Administration’s nursing staff mandate was a half-baked, one size fits none plan that will not resolve the nursing staff shortage and will hurt nursing home facilities all across Minnesota’s 7th District.”  Her bill is called the “Protecting America’s Seniors Access To Care Act.”  Fischbach says she “looks forward to working with the Trump Administration and stakeholders on policies that support nursing staff recruitment and retention to solve the ongoing workforce shortage in this country.”
