WisPolitics.com: Pasch Campaigning on Despite Injury
WisPolitics.com published a story about Sandy recently:
Sandy Pasch, one of 5 Democrats running in the primary for the 22nd Assembly District, says she’s done more than 1,000 doors since being sidelined for several weeks as a result of a pelvis fracture she suffered while campaigning April 27.
Since May 22, Pasch said she's had volunteers and youth in need of summer jobs help push her around the North Shore Milwaukee district in a wheelchair to visit voters' homes.
Pasch said the injury, which requires a three-month recovery period, has given her a greater understanding of the difficulties people with disabilities have in getting around and how the culture is not sensitive to their needs.
“I thought I was aware,” Pasch said. “I'm so much more aware of it now.”
Pasch, a registered nurse for more than 30 years, said reforming healthcare is her top priority and an issue she hears about frequently when she talks to voters.
