Next week will be the first vote on the Udall Bill. It will occur in the Senate Committee on Labor and Health During a process called Mark Up. With 12 of the 16 Senators signed on as cosponsors, you would think that we're looking pretty strong. IF WE HAVE THE SUPPORT OF THE 12 COSPONSORS ON THAT COMMITTEE IT WILL BE A VICTORY FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE RESEARCH. our job is to remind those 12 cosponsors (and the other for members of the committee) that they must do as they have pledged and support strongly the Udall Bill. NOW IS THE TIME. its the opportunity to give the Udall Bill or a version of the Udall Bill to the Senate floor. It's time to redeem all that hard work lining up cosponsors. But that work will be for naught if they don't support increased funding for Parkinson's. That's where you can help make a difference. Between now and July 17, call or write your Senators. LET THEM KNOW WE ARE COUNTING ON THEIR SUPPORT. If they are on the committee they need to hear of the promise of a breakthrough and the tremendous savings in both dollars and human suffering that can be realized. If they are not on the committee, they still can encourage their colleagues who are to support the Udall Bill. Let's use that toll free number (800-962-3524) and make them hear from we who are INVISIBLE NO MORE! PASS THE UDALL BILL IN 1996
