Speak Out about Legislation that Impacts Pulmonary Hypertension Patients

Help your senators and representative make the right choice when it comes to legislative issues that impact the PH community. Contact them using the tips and talking points provided here. Then, share these alerts with your family and friends and ask them to reach out too.

If you plan to take action at least three times a year, join the 435 Campaign.

Medical Research at Risk

Unless Congress acts before March 1, the Public Health Service, which includes the National Institutes of Health and Food and Drug Administration, faces a $2.4 billion budget cut in 2013. Tell Congress to take a balanced approach to deficit reduction that protects public health, medical research and drug approval.
