Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Sheri Biggs (SC-03) introduced the Hope Heals Act, a bill that takes a direct, low-cost approach to fixing how the federal government responds when someone is experiencing a mental health crisis. The legislation is initially cosponsored by Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) and Congressman Paul Gosar (AZ-09).
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, Congresswoman Biggs has seen failures in the system up close.
