As someone impacted by #ALS, passage of the #ACTforALS Act will accelerate access to promising treatments for #ALS and speed the search for urgently needed new treatments. Thank you @SenStabenow for supporting people with #ALS! #ALSAdvocacy

. Last Xmas, @USNavy#Veteran Jerry Manning told Congress #AllIWantForChristmas is to pass the #ACTforALS.
In this video, all he had lost was his voice.
His arms & legs worked.
Jerry died on Oct 23rd.
Don't leave more #Veterans on the #ALS battlefield

.Call the vote on #S1813. Give veterans and thousands of others living with #ALS hope and a chance for more time and holidays with their families. @chuckschumer#ACTforALS was vetted and overwhelmingly approved in the House. #RuleXIV#LetsDoThis
American veterans are 2X as likely to develop ALS as the general public.
ALS is 100% fatal.
#ACTforALS would give these soldiers a fighting chance by providing them with access to promising treatments.
To the Senators in this video, please stand up for them. Co-sponsor now.
@endpts My son Josh received #nurown through EAP and climbed down 100 stairs to see a waterfall. His last injection was in July and now stairs are challenging. We need the @US_FDA to act now and continue halting his #als progression.
My deepest sympathy goes out to Kentuckians. Although @SenRandPaul voted against aid 4 states hit by disaster, I want my taxes to help KY now. Although @RepThomasMassie voted against helping people like my daughter and vets w/#ALS, I will support you. Pls hold them accountable.
The sad #Truth is that a large % of Americans w/ #ALS are our Veterans. The brave, who enlisted during war-time, fought for our freedom & now have to BEG for access to meds to try & survive on AMERICAN SOIL. @SenateDems@SenateGOP S.1813 MUST become law. We owe it to them. #YES
2018- #NurOwn is safe and effective and I don’t need it. I run 4 restaurants with 500 staff
2019 #NurOwn available to me and I’m blessed to get in the trial #Hope
2020 #NurOwnWorks my progression stops for a year
2021 #WISH for more
2022 🙏🏻
This week we celebrated #ACTforALS being passed in the House. Today I ask the Senate to do the same and pass #S1813. ACT for ALS gives hope to the ALS community by increasing access & development of promising treatments. Please sponsor this bill @JohnCornyn@SenTedCruz
1/ It has been just over a year since the data from the Phase 3 trial of the NurOwn trial was labeled a "failure". I was lucky enough to have completed that trial. Patients were disappointed to see the tepid reaction from the #ALS community, despite the anecdotal evidence, plus..
"Be like Dr. Bob" (Brown). Approve NurOwn with provisional approval so we can see how many more "dramatic" responders are surely out there. It's the "best of both worlds", clearly @BrainstormCell@biospace@fiercepharma@adamfeuerstein@statnews@CNN https://t.co/n14a44HqSm
This. This is why I stay in the fight. Records will show that on December 8, 2021, a bill passed through the House. But this right here tells the whole story.
For the daughters. The dads. The sons. The moms.
