Dr. Hall’s reports and official documents were reviewed by US Senator Charles Schumer, New York Congressman Jerrold Nadler, and New York State Senator Thomas K. Duane along with Donna Shalala, US Secretary of Health and Human Services, and the Office of Civil Rights; shocked by these revelations, all were highly supportive of Dr. Hall and availed their resources. Mark Green, New York City Public Advocate supported Dr. Hall’s efforts along with the New York State Department of Health, with whom Dr. Hall filed charges against the hospital’s racist, grossly negligent and inhumane actions against black patients.
