Item 23

23.  Launch a national dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health.

Indy's Observation:  Again, is the President proposing a psychological test or simply more that should be clarified in the ACA?

Item 22

22.  Commit to finalizing mental health parity regulations.

Indy's Observations:  Unless the several mentions on mental health means that it will be a requirement to pass a psychological test before obtaining a gun, I don’t see how it will prevent anything from happening.

Item 21

21.  Finalize regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within ACA exchanges.

Indy's Observation:   Again, I don’t see how this will prevent murders from happening.

Item 20

20.  Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover.

Indy's Observation:   The way this is redacted I can't see how this will prevent mass murders from happening… I can’t even see how this will prevent just a single murder from happening.

Item 19

19.  Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and institutions of higher education.

Indy's Observation:   This is another good measure

Item 18

18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.

Indy's Observation:   Must keep the NRA happy, it's all I can say.

Item 17

17. Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.

Indy's Observation: If by this they mean they are lifting part of the oath doctors take so they can inform authorities about what a patient told them (e.g. a psychiatrist or psychologist) in the privacy of consultation then it is a good measure.
