Enactment of the Udall Bill should be a top objective for all of us who have Parkinsons. This would be a giant step forward, increasing federal funding over 6 times the current level by the 3rd year. I cant emphasis strongly enough, to all of us who use this list to find answers to the many problems Parkinsons Disease poses, this type of funding could result in a major breakthrough, if not a cure, by the end of this decade. Write your elected officials now and write them again next month. Research for Parkinsons Disease is grossly under funded and will only receive comparable funding if we make a loud enough statement. Have your family and friends write too. There are three lobbying groups pushing for enactment of the Udall Bill. They are: Paul Smedberg American Parkinsons Disease Association 807 South Alfred St. #2 Alexandra, VA 22314 Joanne Nelson Wellness Interaction Network 6245 Balboa Blvd. Suite 382 Encino, CA 91316 Joan Samuelson Parkinsons Action Network 822 College Ave. Suite C Santa Rosa, CA 95404 The Parkinsons Action Network has specifically requested copies of responses be forwarded to them. You can either do that directly or send E-Mail copies to me and I will forward. [log in to unmask]
