Nurses group honors Domenici
The Emergency Nurses Association has given Sen. Pete Domenici, an Albuquerque Republican, its 2008 Public Service Award.
The award recognizes Domenici's efforts to build broad-based support for legislation to provide parity in health care coverage for mental health and addiction treatment.
Sen. Edward Kennedy also got an award for his work with Domenici in securing the Senate passage of the Mental Health Parity Act in 2007.
The group's annual Public Service Award honors members of congress who take active leadership roles in health care policy and who are advocates for nursing, health care or injury prevention issues.
