COMMEMORATION OF DR. MARCY ZWELLING
(Mr. SESSIONS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today out of great respect and
mourn the loss of Dr. Marcy Zwelling from California.
Dr. Zwelling, since 2012, has headed up the National Physicians
Council for Healthcare Policy, which is a group of some 570 independent
physicians across the country. Dr. Zwelling not only challenged me but
challenged all 570 members of the Physicians Council to please advocate
on behalf of not only patients but also physicians. She dedicated her
service and life not only to patients, attempting to give them the very
best of medical help, but also for physicians. Physicians who many
times are faced with innumerable challenges, not just to provide
service but also in their own lives.
So it is today I offer to the House of Representatives the great life
of Dr. Marcy Zwelling who passed away this last weekend. May she rest
in peace. May God bless her life and that which she gave each of us.
Whether she was helping organize one of the over nine conferences of
the National Physicians Council for Healthcare Policy nationwide,
developing new screening tools for patients with cancer, or supporting
her fellow physicians, Dr. Zwelling served as an inspiration and
servant leader for myself and so many others in the medical community.
I will miss her leadership and inspiration.
