2019 was an Historic Year for the Lymphedema Community!
Passage of the LTA in the House of Representatives was a huge milestone. We are now well positioned to pass the LTA during the 116th Congress, which does not end until December of 2020!
We are so grateful for your advocacy – nothing can underscore the importance of constituent contact. Your continued involvement will be crucial to our success in getting the LTA through the Senate and passed into law in 2020.
We would also like to thank our 2019 Industry Partners – L&R USA, JOBST, and mediUSA; and our 2019 Annual Sponsors – ImpediMed, Lymphedema Products, and the Lipedema Foundation. Their support is deeply appreciated.
Save the date for Lymphedema Lobby Days 2020 in Washington, DC on March 1st and 2nd! A required orientation and complementary dinner will be held the evening of March 1st, and March 2nd will be a full day of meeting with congressional offices. More details will be available soon.
On behalf of everyone here at the Lymphedema Advocacy Group, we wish you a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year!
