Advocacy Archives: Letters from Congress

One of the requests we routinely make during Lobby Day meetings with members of Congress is that they write to other policymakers and federal health officials about CFIDS issues. Maintaining the CFS Advisory Committee and getting action on its recommendations have been a focus of 2005 and 2006 requests. Letters from Members of Congress to Secretary for Health Michael Leavitt about the committee are found below.
