This past weekend we celebrated the passing of the bipartisan Senate Resolution, S.Res. 225, in honor of International ME/CFS Awareness Day. Now is the time to thank the lead sponsors, Senator Markey and Collins, plus the other 13 Senators who co-sponsored this historic resolution!!

 

Two Ways to Show Your Thanks:

  1. Send a thank you email or card to the senators’ offices, particularly if you have a contact within that office. You can find addresses here.
