Hello - Some news from D.C. - we expect the final Senate Labor-HHS Appropriations vote on Wednesday, and the House version is supposed to be on the floor on Monday. So . . . please continue making phone calls to your legislators, asking that they support a $75 million increase for focused Parkinson's research. The Appropriations process is nearly finished and it is important to capitalize on the momentum of this week. Also, thanks should go to Senators Specter (PA) and Cochran (MS) for their support and help in orchestrating the hearing. The Capitol switchboard number is 202-224-3121. Thanks! Kelly Abbett with the Parkinson's Action Network ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Bid and sell for free at http://auctions.yahoo.com
