“Angela Haren was an absolute hero, and the success of this (not easy) bill to this point sits very decidedly on her shoulders.  She was tenacious, smart, compelling, strategic, and unflagging in her efforts.  Others, including Evan [Isaacson] – who is also extraordinary, of course – were also involved and important to the success (passing legislation is always a team effort), but there is absolutely no question in anyone’s mind that it was Angela that brought it home. This bill was *hard,* and required every bit of finesse, persistence, patience, and sheer brilliance that Angela brought to the table.”
