    “As a teenager, I was sent to youth residential treatment facilities where I endured abuse that no child should ever experience. I was physically restrained, sexually abused, isolated, overmedicated, and stripped of my dignity,” she said in her open letter. The bill will establish a Federal Work Group for youth residential programs that works to ensure facilities are implementing best practices for the health, safety and treatment of their participants. It will also support the education and training of professionals in the field and provide federal oversight about recommendations for the future.

    That sounds like she is serious about a good cause.

      I believe her letter and her experience. But that doesn’t mean she’s some pure of heart good deed doer. Her grandfather was a CEO and she will probably be a billionaire.

      She wants power.
