Hi Andre- Thank you for your offer to help us to pass the Morris Udall Bill for Parkinson's Disease Research S.535 & H.R.1260. I have always encouraged ANYONE -no matter where they live- who will benefit from Parkinson disease Research, to contact Washington DC. and let their needs be known. What better way to let the United States government know that their decisions effect people who are suffering from disease-all over the world- not just their constituents, then by writing and calling from afar. Last year a list member from Austrailia called a congressional office in Washington DC and said , "All eyes are upon you, waiting to see what the U.S. does to help their citizens with Parkinson's disease." She told me that the office was very courteous and VERY willing to listen. Perhaps in your contact with our leaders you could say, "Please allow me to help your constituents. I respectfully request that you do whatever is necessary to move the Udall Bill S.535 & H.R.1260 to the floor for hearings and a vote." The following 4 Sponsors of the Udall bill need to know that our support for what they are doing is strong and worldwide . Please write or call: Ms. Sonya Sotak Office of the Honorable John McCain United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 email [log in to unmask] fax 202-228-2862 phone 202-224-2235 -------------------- Ms. Linda Degutis Office of the Honorable Paul Wellstone United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 email [log in to unmask] fax 202-224-8438 phone 202-224-5641 --------------------- The Honorable Fred Upton House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 email [log in to unmask] fax 202-225-4986 phone 202-225-3761 --------------------- The Honorable Henry Waxman House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 fax 202-225-4099 phone 202-225-3976 ---------------------- Let me know if you want more information about how to help with the Udall bill, Barbara
