Bill Nelson actually said...

"In your testimony, you stated that people with disabilities and older adults are two to four more times likely to die or be seriously injured in a disaster."

"I introduced a bill with Senators Rubio, Casey, and Collins to create a national advisory commission to advise the Department of Health and Human Services on disaster preparedness for seniors."

"I think a national advisory commission on seniors and disasters is important and would identify 'best practices' across the country."

"I am still devastated about the 12 seniors who died after being trapped in a nursing home in high temperatures after Hurricane Irma knocked out the facility's power."
