I am so proud of Sen. Carla Nelson's leadership for the Mayo Clinic.
It is due to the Mayo Clinic that I live in Rochester. Throughout my life I have dealt with several significant disabilities, yet have had a very successful career with IBM. The Mayo Clinic is continuing to strengthen its worldwide reputation of health care excellence and patient-focused treatments, and the Destination Medical Center initiative will add to that strength.
Nelson was forced to take a tough vote this week as the issue was included in the partisan and ugly tax bill, but I know she has and will continue to be an ardent supporter and a coauthor of the legislation for the DMC.
Carla Nelson is a principled and key leader for Rochester and she made the right decision for us. Thank you, Carla Nelson! I'm proud of you and your vote.
