Thank you Chairman @RepJasonSmith for holding last week’s markup and for your leadership in advancing the bipartisan #ASAPAct.
Today is World Alzheimer’s Day, a time to raise awareness about Alzheimer’s and dementia and recognize the millions of individuals and families impacted by these diseases.
Early detection can make a real difference. The bipartisan Alzheimer's Screening and Prevention Act, led by @VernBuchanan and recently approved by the Ways & Means Committee, would expand Medicare coverage for innovative Alzheimer’s screening, helping seniors and families get answers sooner.

More than 9 in 10 Americans say they would want a simple test for Alzheimer’s. The bipartisan #ASAPAct is crucial to ensure access. Tell your representatives to support this important bill today: bit.ly/442ieIq.

We’re in a different moment than we were even a few years ago thanks to advancements in Alzheimer’s treatment, detection & prevention. This progress exists because Congress, on a bipartisan basis, continues to invest in the NIH. That support must continue.
The #RallyforMedicalResearch is underway! Today, advocates will tell their Congressional representatives how medical research impacted their lives and advocate for sustained and robust NIH funding. Join them! Contact your representatives today:
