A large percentage of our elected officials in Washington, D.C., are millionaires — some multimillionaires — who could step forward to help the people they are elected to serve.

Both Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and the Nevada Legislature deserve much praise for stepping up to bat for children who stutter and ultimately transforming so many lives in the process.
