The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is asking for our assistance in their advocacy for important programs. Read their announcement below including links for contacting your legislators.
Today, advocates from across the country are in Washington, D.C. to meet with members of Congress about two important pieces of legislation that can help everyone with cystic fibrosis. We need you to help amplify our impact.
Every day, infections continue to threaten people with cystic fibrosis. The PASTEUR Act is key to fighting the public health crisis of antimicrobial resistance by stabilizing the broken antibiotics marketplace and jumpstarting the development of new, effective antibiotics needed to protect all Americans from deadly superbugs.
The HELP Copays Act would help reduce the financial burden for people with CF by requiring health insurance plans to count the value of any copay assistance received toward the enrollee’s annual deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.
It only takes two minutes to send a message to your members of Congress. Take action now to ensure all people with cystic fibrosis have affordable access to high-quality care and treatments.
