I’m thrilled to inform you that yesterday, on March 25th, the Lymphedema Treatment Act was reintroduced by Rep Dave Reichert (WA), with co-leads Leonard Lance (NJ), Earl Blumenauer (OR), and Janice Schakowsky (IL). Our new bill number is HR 1608.
Please write your Representative today using the contact form on our website – it only takes a couple of minutes!
Even if your Rep was a cosponsor last year, you will need to contact him or her again because cosponsors do not carry over from one Congress to the next. An editable template letter is provided, and I encourage you to add a few personal sentences explaining why this issue is so important to you.
After you send your letter you will be redirected to a Tell-A-Friend form. Please encourage everyone you know to also send a letter. Additional tools for helping to spread awareness can be found on our Increasing Awareness page.
Act Now to Pass the LTA!
Thanks for your support,
