Default Has your Senator/Congressman Signed the MS Caucus?

http://www.msactivist.blogspot.com/

Check to see if your Senator or Congressman has signed on to support the New MS Caucus.

During the week of May 6-9, we spent time with each and every Senator and Congressman asking them to co-sponsor the Congressional MS Caucus.

This Caucus will
  • Actively engage in discussions about access to quality health care,increased MS research, disability rights, and other MS issues;
  • Seek creative solutions to the challenges facing people with MS, and;
  • Raise awareness and promote education about MS in our efforts to move closer to a world free of this disease.
The MS Caucus was Co-chaired by Congressmen Russ Carnahan (MO) and Michael Burgess, M.D. (TX and Senators Byron Dorgan (ND) and Orrin Hatch (UT).

Write a letter to your Legislator if they are not on this list.

If anyone is from Idaho, take note that Congressman Bill Sali has two sisters with MS and he has yet to sign on or take note of ANY legislation for MS. He is up for re-election this year.
