Digestive Health Alliance Advocacy Day

On June 19, I joined Advocates from the Digestive Health Alliance (DHA) and International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD) on Capitol Hill. We met with congressional and senatorial staff to ask for their support of the Functional Gastrointestinal & Motility Disorders Research Enhancement Act of 2013 (H.R. 842)

You can also help by emailing your member of the U.S. House of Representatives in support of the Functional Gastrointestinal & Motility Disorders Research Enhancement Act of 2013 (H.R. 842). When you reach out as a constituent, you put a face on those affected by functional GI and motility disorders; you add meaning to what could be just another piece of legislation coming across a desk. 

Thank you for your support!
