A bill has been entered into the House of Representatives that is extremely important to all of us kidney and dialysis patients. According to the Dialysis Patient Citizen:
This bill seeks to advance several proactive kidney care policy initiatives and provides a vehicle for educating Members of Congress and the public about the issues facing kidney disease patients and the kidney community as a whole.
Here’s what you need to do:
!. Contact your Congressional Representative!
That’s it! There’s no step 2! So, please take a moment, click the link above, and TAKE ACTION to send a message to your member of Congress. You will have to enter information like name, address, etc. but it’s secure on this website. I have never been spammed by this group. Also, you must enter that information because it will find who your Representative is and help you send him/her an email.
When you’ve done this, please post to your Facebook page, Twitter, Linkdin, etc. Spread the word! Encourage your friends to do so, too!
We are a small community but we can have a loud voice if you add yours.
From Renal Support Network, here’s more about HB4814, the Kidney Care Bill.
Thank you.
