Your Members of Congress are working in their home states for the month of August, and you can schedule time to meet with them!

While the letters you have been sending to Congress throughout the year are an integral part of raising awareness and voicing concerns about legislation, sharing your personal story face-to-face with your Members often results in a greater impact.

If you want to meet with your Members during their August recess, contact us.  We will  instruct you on how to request a meeting and provide tips on how to prepare, as well as important information about our legislative priorities:

• The Comprehensive Immunosuppressive Drug Coverage bill (S. 323 and H.R. 1428) would extend Medicare’s coverage of anti-rejection drugs for kidney transplant recipients.
• The Chronic Kidney Disease Improvement in Research and Treatment Act (H.R. 4814) aims to promote Chronic Kidney Disease research and education, expand the sharing of your health information among all of your doctors, and protect access to care for dialysis patients.
• The need for early detection and research.

Contact us for all the information you need to meet with your Members in August!
