I am only learning about this bill right now because of a service learning project in my class for paralegal school. Does anyone know what the status of the bill is? I read on one of the websites that it has been killed because there was not enough support for it in Congress. I don’t know anyone personally that a faulty medical device has affected, but I have read a lot of the other comments left on websites about other people who have been personally affected. I think the bill should be brought up again, it is horrible that people who are sick are getting worse and sometimes dying because the medical companies are not standing behind their products. As far as I know everyother company has to stand behind their products otherwise they could have a suit filed against them so why not places that make medical equipment? I think this bill is a very important one and hopefully will get brought up again if it indeed has been passed on in Congress.

I have a Medtronic defibrilliator that was put in 02/09/2007 and the doctor contact me 10/2007 about the recall. The company did not contact me until 12/2007. They are not able to remove it, so now I will spend the rest of my life hoping and pray it does not go off due to the fracture wires. IHow do I feel? THIS IS MURDER.

It’s a shame when our government allows company’s like medtronic to sale defective material to the public that may cause harm or even death to any human being. What is the price of a life to our government officials on capital hill when U.S citizens are being killed by and american product made to save lives.Would this be listed as murder or assault on a person for the suffering of the use of there(medtronic) product.

It would be great if someone could prepare a form letter to forward to your senator and house representatives. People are much more likely to send an email of support for the bill if a letter is prepared.
