Subject: FW: Help us spread the word: PKU Congressional Briefing

The National PKU Alliance, in partnership with the Neurosciences Caucus and Rare Disease Caucus, will be holding a Congressional Briefing on Thursday, Sept. 19 on PKU and Medical Foods.  We need your help to spread the word!  Please call your House Representative today and ask them to send their Health Legislative Assistant to the briefing.  Here is what you need to do:


1.        Look up your House Representative at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://www.npkua.org/index.php/your-legislators&k=7DHVT22D9IhC0F3WohFMBA%3D%3D%0A&r=rX%2BpwtxS62RFz%2BMe%2BGygIuxlYqsdJqSFMkXPQTg4Occ%3D%0A&m=W%2FA7R3gLztqWz7LdecnE%2FdV5qmlqmaRaz4CD4Ir1a9k%3D%0A&s=78d4c9668982d4e4782c75b5f185d092cf1c62be5be336e0fcec7f3036c57cca

3.       Tell the intern that answers the phone your name and address.
