The vote on the Department of Defense (DOD) appropriations bill in the US House of Representatives is scheduled for next Tuesday, June 14, 2011. Please send a message to your Congressperson expressing your desire to keep the ALS Research Program at the Department of Defense open and fully funded.

The amount of money we are talking about is a little over one minute's worth out of all the money our Federal government will spend this year.

Government Spending Per Minute: $6.85 Million - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

That's it!

One minute out of more than half a million minutes this year (365 x 24 x 60 = 525,600)

Take a few of your minutes and click one of the links below so ALS patients and their families can get our "minute" from Washington.

Public Policy - The ALS Association

U.S. citizens only, please.

I wrote President Obama, my two Senators, and my House Rep yesterday!
 
Thanks, tr. I sent my letters off a few seconds ago.
 
I hope the voices are loud enough. I sent mine, too
 
I sent all mine as well. It is incredible to think what the government think is important to fund.
 
Sent letters. Thanks.
