“Please tell Representative [name] to pass the Lymphedema Treatment Act HR930 this year. With 320
cosponsors, this bipartisan and bicameral bill is one of the most widely supported health care bills in
Congress. Millions of Americans with lymphedema—the majority of them cancer survivors—are counting
on Representative [name] to modernize Medicare and close this coverage gap.”

Please pass @LymphedemaAct now—bipart/bicam w/320 cosponsors. Millions—mostly cancer survivors—need U2 fix coverage gap @HHSGov
Look ahead:
Watch for more Congressional offices to be added to the Reach & Rally list. If we concentrate our efforts,
week by week, our bill will gain notice. This is a vital step toward passage, and together, if we all participate,
we can move the bill forward this fall.
Together, we can pass the LTA!
