Hardship review of traffic light damage invoice

The Comsa executive director explained Ms. Ahmed is a recently resettled refugee with trauma, working 30-35 hours a week, whose insurance approved only a minimal amount, and asked the committee to reduce the bill to around $10,000 so the community could fundraise the rest.

Speaking through a translator, Ms. Ahmed described the accident on her way home from work, being rear-ended, her hospitalization, and the crushing stack of hospital, city, and travel-repayment bills.
