Thank you Senator Coburn for being our watchdog! If there was a cure
for ALS you could save us 1000 times this amount. Doctor, what are you
thinking?

...and ALS advocates have spent a lot out of their own pockets to make
difficult trips to Washington and to visit public figures to get the
word out about the need for a registry. That investment of money and
precious time (especially precious for those dealing with the ticking
ALS clock) goes poof if Coburn's watchdog tactics prevail at the expense
of the ALS Registry Act.
