As Congress adjourns for the month-long August recess, it is important that our Chapters and advocates continue to reach out to their elected officials when they are home in their states and districts. Therefore, we are providing the following tools and guidance to help you build additional support for our cause and for the ALS Registry Act (S. 1382/HR 2295).
