PROBLEM: Amber Harding  a staff attorney at the Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless   said  her  organization is arguing for multiple changes to the legislation  including requirements for proof of residency and the creation of a presumption  absent proof to the contrary  that anyone named as an occupant on a lease is ineligible for shelter.
 She  said both provisions would be especially burdensome for the young parents â commonly between the ages of 18 and 24 â who often seek shelter  since they may not have adequate documentation of where they live or may still be listed on leases at the homes of parents unwilling to host their families.
âThe purpose of the right to shelter is to prevent people from freezing to death â  Harding  said. With the current bill   she  added  âWe will guarantee that people will be left out on freezing nights who are D.C. residents and are eligible for shelter  just because theyâve put up these bureaucratic hurdles.â
Nadeau said the bill has evolved in a way that softens some of the original shelter eligibility rules proposed by the mayor. It now includes a provision that shelter applicants would meet the residence requirement if they are already receiving certain other D.C. government benefits for the poor   she  said. The bill has also been modified to require only one proof of residency  rather than the original two   she  said.
âWhen we say that we canât keep spending $80 000 a night . . . itâs not because we donât want to support the people in hotels â  she  said. âItâs because we want a better intervention for them. We can spend $80 000 a night in so many ways that help people more.â

PROBLEM: Dr. Anna Konopka  told Merrimack Superior Court Judge John Kissinger on Friday that  her  inability to practice is putting  her  patients at risk  because they are having a hard time finding another physician and fill their prescriptions.
But Assistant Attorney General Lyn Cusack says  Konopka 's request should be denied  arguing the doctor has been given plenty of time to close her practice and help patients find other doctors. If she wants to get her license back  Cusack says  Konopka  could file for reconsideration with the Board of Medicine.
Kissinger says he will take  Konopka 's request under advisement.
 Dr. Anna Konopka  voluntary gave up  her  license in October after the state Board of Medicine challenged  her  record keeping  drug prescribing practices and medical decision making. Part of the problem is that the New London doctor doesn't use a computer and therefore doesn't participate in the state's mandatory drug monitoring program.
 Konopka  has been granted an emergency court hearing on Friday to try to convince a judge that  she  deserves to get  her  license back. Though  she  insists  her  paper record keeping system works fine   she  says  she  would be willing to learn to use a computer.

SOLUTION: Anna Konopka
