When writing to your member, it is critical that you include your name and address in your email message, preferably at the top of the message. Many offices use an automatic response to all incoming messages, so you can expect to receive a form message back from most of the addresses to which you send an email message. For a total listing of congressional email addresses, go to: http://www.webslingerz.com/jhoffman/congress-email.html A telephone call or a snail mail letter is more productive than email. If you call, use the toll free 1-800-962-3524 or 1-800-972-3524 and tell the operator your state/zipcode if you do not know your member's name, and you'll be connected. Say "Please Co-Sponsor The Morris Udall Bill For Parkinson's Disease Research" Give your name & address so they tally your call and subject. If you write, address your letter to: The Honorable ____________ United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 OR The Honorable _____________ United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 The message is the same regardless of the method of contact: The 105th Congress must pass legislation to support Parkinson's research. 1. A majority of neuroscientist feel a cure or new effective treatment is close. 2. The annual cost savings to Society is estimated quite possibly to be $26 billion. 3. The tragedy of knowing a cure is close but may not be reached for lack of an ultimately modest $100 million per year. For us who have Parkinson's, THE CLOCK IS TICKING. Please ask your family & friends to make individual calls also . Every call counts. Margaret Tuchman (55yrs, Dx 1980)- NJ-08540 [log in to unmask]
