The Medical Malpractice
Mandatory Arbitration Act
By Danielle M. Baza
UPDATE: Gubernatorial candidate Congressman
Michael San Nicolas this past week affirmed his
commitment to support necessary changes to the
Medical Malpractice Mandatory Arbitration Act.
On October 31, 2018, Asher Dean Lubofsky died at Guam Memorial Hospital.
Asher was admitted the day before, and his condition worsened gradually over
night. According to his father, David Lubofsky, in previous statements to Kandit
News, his son was never admitted to the ICU despite his deteriorating condition,
the nurses never set him up with a breathing tube despite his labored breathing,
and a doctor never checked on him through the night.
An investigative report on Asher Dean’s death by the U.S. Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services secretly published May 3, 2019, confirmed Mr. Lubofsky’s

UPDATE:Guamgovernorpushes
partial Jones Act reform
Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero this past week took a position on the Jones
Act. And while the specifics of her position are yet to be known, she has
expressed a desire for Congress to apply an exemption Puerto Rico currently
enjoys for the cheaper import of liquid fuel. Such a change, the governor
suggested in a letter to several members of Congress, will help to decrease
the cost of fuel on Guam.
The problem is that the Jones Act has nothing to do with the cost of liquid
fuel on Guam, according to several sources in both the local furl industry,
and in Washington, D.C.
“A foreign carrier brings the fuel directly from Singapore, and makes no
other U.S. stops, so the Jones Act doesn’t apply to that at all,” confirmed one
shipping executive.
The governor may simply have been ill-informed of the details of fuel
delivery to Guam, a Washington source said, or it could be a deliberate
attempt at pandering to voters in an election year. Nonetheless, advocating
for Jones Act exemptions on a broader scale can help in the fight living.
