    To put it more bluntly, Jim Crapo’s career has been largely dedicated to the COPDGene study, funded by the NHLBI, a division of the NIH.

      He and Ed Silverman at the Brigham (another friend of our foundation) are the Co-PIs for the program. 25+ medical centers are involved.

        I should have known this, as they are one of two committees of jurisdiction for our bill. But this was welcome news to me.

        Kennedy’s nomination is set to run through the Senate Finance Committee early next year, which is slated to be led by Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho).

        I know Mike’s brother Jim. He’s a pulmonologist that works with us and with the COPD Foundation, which our founder also started. He gets it. Senator Crapo is a traditional conservative. Mormon. Wants to do the right thing.

        Mormons generally have been far less likely to abandon their long-held principles to support Trump. Contrast that with, say, Evangelicals.

        They may still vote for him, but with no small amount of despair and maybe even an ounce of self loathing.

          FYI they pronounce it ‘Cray-po’ not ‘Crap-o’

            My first instinct was to say CrÂpo.

              Me too. Glad someone told me before I met Jim.

                Note the top vaccine has caused a ‘holocaust’ if you believe RFK Jr.

                  Scott Gottleib, Trump’s former FDA chief, is lobbying GOP senators contra the RFK nomination.

                  Says there’s far more skepticism than is being reported

                      That's because they're all dying from vaccines.

                      I was only joking

                        True. Massive own-goal on my part.
