The ALS Network proudly supports the bipartisan Healthy Brains Act (HR 9233), introduced by Reps. Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) and Congressman Gus Bilirakis (R-FL).
This important legislation directs the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to investigate the relationship between environmental risk factors and neurodegenerative diseases like ALS, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. This research is crucial in our fight to uncover the root causes of these diseases and develop new prevention strategies, treatments, and cures.
We commend these efforts and Reps. Wexton and Bilirakis for their leadership and dedication to this cause. We can drive the change needed to cure ALS together.
