Next Wednesday, December 14th, join hundreds of others and call on your representative to cosponsor H.R.1227. With a five minute phone call to your congressman's office, you will protect your genetic information and that of your family.

The Rural and Community Access to Emergency Devices program is still in jeopardy. Congress recently defeated an 83% cut in funding to this program. But now, you have one last chance to make sure Congress restores drastic cuts to this program that provides your state with automated external defibrillators (AEDs).

The recently defeated Labor-HHS-Education conference report would also have provided the National Institutes of Health (NIH) with the lowest percentage increase in funding in 36 years. This outcome would have significantly limited ground-breaking research that leads to cures.

We have one more opportunity to restore AED funding. But, we have to act fast. Discussions are being held now on Capitol Hill and decisions will be made shortly, so please send a message now.
