We now have grassroots advocacy teams in all 50 states! If you haven’t joined your state’s team yet here are a few reasons why we hope you will consider it.
- No prior advocacy experience is needed.
- The time commitment is entirely up to you.
- It won’t cost you a thing and you can do everything needed to increase support for the LTA right from home.
- If your Representative is not yet a cosponsor you will receive additional support to get him or her signed on.
- If your Representative is already a cosponsor you can assist your fellow teammates in reaching that goal.
- The more people that get involved the sooner lymphedema patients will have coverage for their vital compression supplies!
Additional information and a link to join your team can be found on the State Teams page of our website.
After joining you will be introduced to the other members of your team via email. If you have any questions please respond to this message.
As of today we have 144 cosponsors! Join your team and help us reach our goal of 218, which is just over one half of the House of Representatives!
