Date Congressman Frank Pallone Fax 202-225-9665 I’m contacting Congressman Frank Pallone to schedule the Lyme Bill for a hearing today! He has made a critical mistake in siding with the IDSA which has been investigated and discredited. The IDSA Guidelines settlement is a treatment issue unrelated to the bill which asks for research money to find a gold standard test and for the patient voice on a federal advisory committee which is a common model for federal advisory committees. Mr. Pallone’s job is to help patients NOT support an investigated, discredited medical society. Thank you, Your Name Your Street Address Your City, State, Zip Your Phone Number ----------------------------------------------- Date Congressman Dingell Fax 202-226-0371 I’m contacting Congressman Dingell to contact Frank Pallone, House Health Subcommittee Chair. Tell him to schedule a hearing on HR 741, the Lyme bill. Currently, the Committee is not scheduling the bill but is bowing to a powerful medical society (IDSA) that has been investigated by the Attorney General of Connecticut and found to have substantial conflicts of interest regarding Lyme disease treatment guidelines. The Lyme bill does not focus on treatment, but research monies to find a gold standard test for Lyme and it establishes a federal advisory committee based on a common model for federal committees, which includes patient representation. IDSA does not want patients to have a voice in their own disease. I need your help today. Please, please, please Call Mr. Pallone and tell him to post the bill and give patients the voice they deserve to have. Thank you, Your Name Your Street Address Your City, State, Zip Your Phone Number ---------------------------------------------------- Date US Senator Edward Kennedy Fax 202-224-2417 I’m contacting Senator Kennedy to schedule the Lyme Bill for a hearing today! By not holding a hearing, he is ignoring the plight of patients and listening to the IDSA, which as been investigated and discredited! The IDSA Guidelines settlement is a treatment issue unrelated to the bill which asks for research money to find a gold standard test and for a patient voice on a federal advisory committee which is a common model for federal advisory committees. Senator Kennedy’s job is to help patients NOT support an investigated, discredited medical society.
