PAUL BURNS: It's cancer. It's gonna come back. That's what my doctor told me in 2009. There was a clinical trial that could help, but my insurance company wouldn't let me do it. Kathleen Williams was my state legislator. She listened to me and she said, "I'll dig into it," and she brought together doctors, insurers, patients and wrote a law that required insurance companies to cover these life-saving treatments. No grandstanding – just results. Kathleen Williams gets things done. I wouldn't be here today without her.

WILLIAMS: I am Kathleen Williams and I approve this message.
