Miami's basketball champs are all over Washington, D.C. today. The Miami Heat were to be feted by President Bush at the White House this afternoon, and Alonzo Mourning, a member of the 2006 NBA championship team, is heading to the Hill tonight to join legislators and kidney care advocates in support of new kidney care policy.
Mourning, a kidney transplant recipient, will join Kidney Care Partners - an alliance of patient advocates and care providers - to introduce the Kidney Care Quality and Education Act, which would establish patient education and disease management programs.
The team plays the Washington Wizards Wednesday night.
