Blue Ribbon meets with Sen. Cassidy and healthcare aide

[Merry]

After the MillionsMissing protest in Washington, DC, Ryan Prior and other members of the Blue Ribbon Foundation met with Pranay Udtha, healthcare aide to Senator Bill Cassidy, and with the Senator himself. Junior senator of Louisiana, Bill Cassidy is also a physician who would like to reform the NIH.

From Forgotten Plague's Facebook page:

Sen. Cassidy is a physician focused on NIH reform to allocate federal dollars for bio-medical research to diseases based on data-driven metrics about the disease's burden to individuals and society. His arguments for funding are similar to what our advocates have been saying for decades. Sen. Cassidy's proposals, if passed, would be a great boon to ME/CFS patients and we would all be wise to support his ideas!

YESSSS!!!! He is my senator. I wrote him as soon as I found out that he had attended a meeting with Carol Head back in March and I had a copy of Forgotten Plague sent to all of my representatives. Praying that we have one more player in our column!

I think I owe him another letter.
