Abstract Details9/26/2014 | 2:15 PM - 2:45 PM | Topical Session 3 | Ballroom A From Public Health Concern to Law: The Legislative Process In 2013, the Utah Legislature unanimously passed House Bill 81, Cytomegalovirus Public Health Initiative, requiring CMV education and CMV testing for newborns who fail their newborn hearing screening. Representative Ronda Menlove was the sponsor and champion of the legislation. Representative Menlove is a 10-year sitting member of the Utah House of Representatives, is the Chair of the Health and Human Services Appropriations Committee, and has served in House Leadership. In this session, Representative Menlove will teach participants the legislative process, using the Cytomegalovirus Public Health Initiative as a case study. She will discuss the preparatory steps for proposing legislation that will increase the possibility of policy change; the necessary relationships and steps for successfully navigating a state legislature; and the importance of selecting legislative sponsors that will follow through with the implementation of enacted policies. Representative Menlove successfully navigated a legislature that was not prone to pass a mandate, responded to opposition from the medical field and, together with the department of health, obtained a reasonable budget for CMV Public Health. She successfully added to the budget in 2014 and continues to advocate for CMV awareness and research.
