What's the reasoning behind splitting physical and occupational therapy up, and do either of those have any overlap with speech and language services? I'm not sure how much of Atlascare pertains to speech and language therapy and how much needs to be expanded/established under this bill.

Thanks for the replies. Do we have any feedback from the rest of the House, or am I addressing an empty chamber and a C-SPAN livestream?
