Congressman Dave Reichert (WA-08) has been the champion of the LTA for many years. He is always looking for ways to educate and raise awareness amongst his colleagues about the often forgotten condition of lymphedema, and to push for coverage of compression.
Another such opportunity occurred last week during a Ways and Means Committee hearing on Medicare legislation. Click HERE to watch the video clip of Congressman Reichert’s statement.
The Lymphedema Treatment Act is one of his priority pieces of legislation, and with the recent announcement of his retirement after the 115th Congress, he is pushing even harder to get the bill passed.
Please join us in showing our appreciation to Congressman Dave Reichert by calling his office to thank him for sponsoring the Lymphedema Treatment Act. The phone number is 202-225-7761.
If you are on Facebook, you can also leave a thank-you message on this post. Thank you for helping us express our gratitude to Congressman Reichert!
