Rep. Israel's press secretary joins medical board group

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Nov. 7, 2016

The Federation of State Medical Boards has given Rep. Steve Israel's (D-N.Y.) press secretary a clean bill of health. 

Joe Knickrehm, who joined Israel's office from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in 2014, is now the non-profit's communications and public affairs manager. 

The trade association, which represents 70 state medical and osteopathic boards around the country, has reported spending at least $590,000 on lobbying so far this year, on medical issues ranging from interstate compact legislation to tele-medicine regulation.
