The second half of Rebeca’s discussion with Dr. Owen Perlman contains information about how and why PA21 and 22 were passed as well as insight into the everyday experience of caregivers. Thoughts about a bill currently being written in the House to “reform the reform” are also shared.

Today we share a precious note from a patient (who has been impacted by PA21 and 22) to his mom on Thanksgiving. Then, Dr. Owen Perlman gives incredible insight into how auto no-fault reform is causing a crisis in care across Michigan.

Wishing all of our listeners and supporters a very Happy Thanksgiving from the Silent Crash family.

As she looks into the individuals who championed PA21 and PA22 into existence, Rebeca finds a striking lack of scandal…until she listens to a sermon. With a hope that it truly IS never too late to stand for what's right, we bring you Episode 5 of “Silent Crash.”

While researching for the next deep dive episode, Rebeca is told of a recent Republican Senate Caucus meeting and the lies that were shared therein. She pauses to address the falsehoods by, among other things, sharing the discussions she had with Chalise and Karen.

Did the 23rd richest person in the world have something to do with the changes to Michigan’s auto no-fault law? And, if so, why? We’ve been doing what you recommended: following the money. And we found some…interesting… details.

We also met a war veteran whose story makes the catastrophe unfolding in Michigan all too real. He is one of the 18,000 whose lives have been thrown into chaos by PA21 and PA22. Maybe the first man could answer the questions of the second?

Today, we bring you Silent Crash Episode 3: A Tale of Two Men.

Tricia sits down with me to share how the reforms have impacted her and her son Jake. We also respond to Gov. Whitmer’s statement today that $5 billion of the $23 billion MCCA fund be returned to citizens.

Something Sinister Lurks in Michigan.

In the dark of night, a piece of legislation was signed into law on Mackinac Island last year. On July 2, 2021, it took effect - to the devastation of thousands.

Silent Crash details the stories of the quiet unraveling of Michigan's Auto Nofault and the Destruction of Lives.
