Hi All,
I have read on other threads that people have sent advocacy emails out especially regarding XMRV, and the CFSAC meetings. I am trying to also send out emails. However, I want to send out some snail mail as well hoping that if someone has a piece of paper in their hands that they cannot ignore it as easily.
I started by sending a thank you card to Wanda Jones for getting the live videocast of the CFSAC meeting. Today I sent a letter to V.P. Joe Biden. I choose him because we are both from Delaware and I could start the letter with that connection. I stressed having Sec. Sebelius act on the CFSAC requests, and I talked about my concern for the blood supply.
I want to try to send a couple of letters a week when I can, but would appreciate input about where to get the best bang for the buck. Who would be next? Sec. Sebelius? My Congressional people? Congressional Committee heads? The Washington Post?
Suggestions, please
Thanks,
Maxine
