Arthritis Prevention, Control and Cure Act of 2005

[Guest guest]

Your help is needed to pass the Arthritis Prevention, Control and Cure

Act of 2005

(H.R. 583/S. 424) 

The Arthritis Prevention, Control, and Cure Act of 2005, co-sponsored

by Republicans and Democrats in both the House and Senate, proposes

significant improvements in federal arthritis research and public

health programs and authorizes expansion of the federal investment in

programs designed to help children with arthritis.  To ensure passage

of this bill, we need your help.  Please Send a letter to your Senators

and Representatives today asking them to co-sponsor the bill

and support increased funding for NIH and CDC arthritis research. Let

them know that this bill is important to you!

They make this very easy for people to send email letters to their

representatives. You type in your zip code, and it lists your senators

and representatives and Pres. Bush, and even shows a picture of them.

You can click to send them all the same message. They even have a

letter you can use to send. I just made up my own.

Anyway, it's very easy, and even I had no trouble. I urge you all to do

it. Maybe our voices will be heard.
