Thank you @NFL for supporting ALS with #MyCauseMyCleats!

Of course a failing Marxist regime like Nicaragua severed ties with free and democratic Taiwan in favor of better relations with the Chinese Communist Party.

Today’s passage of #ACTforALS in the House brings the 30k Americans living w/ #ALS 1 step closer to accessing promising treatments that could improve their quality of life. It’s time to fix the system for approving therapies for patients who are #DyingWaiting. Next up: The Senate
Through #MyCauseMyCleats, @Patriots DB @CodyDavis is supporting AxeALS & @stevens_nation to help raise awareness and funding for ALS treatment.
Here's the story of why this cause means so much to Davis, in his own words. (THREAD, 1/5)
.@biogen You have 2 trials-BIB100 (oral) & BIB105 (intrathecal) that don't have Open-Label Extension (OLE). Your participants are leaving your trials without the ability to continue taking your drugs.
Shame on you.
You're the giant in the ALS space, start acting like one. #PaCTD
@ScottGottliebMD My 31 year old husband was in the P3 #NurOwn trial & #EAP & stabilized both times. 2 yrs post diagnosis and he can still speak clearly, eat normally, & walk. He can get on the floor & play with our 7 mo old daughter. Now, he no longer has access to this treatment. #LivingProof
Deeply tragic. Upshot here is we shouldn’t be randomizing patients to placebo when the outcome is certain death. We should use natural history models and synthetic control arms in these settings instead of obligating a placebo arm to a known, fatal outcome https://t.co/1C5qfV2wrv
Please encourage fundraisers, friends & family to donate to the clear leaders moving #ALS forward w urgency & ACTIONS:

Eric can still get down on the floor to play w/ our 5 mo old daughter. He gets up by himself using the couch for help. 2 years ago, doctors said he probably wouldn’t be here. Well, not only is he here—he’s singing, laughing & playing w/ our little girl. #LivingProof#NurOwnWorks
Eric has fast progressing ALS. We are approaching 2 years since diagnosis (over 2 years since symptoms started in his hand). He can still tie a bow, peel open a Reese’s cup, turn pages in a book, use the TV remote, text, bathe, & eat a normal diet w/ a fork & spoon. #NurOwnWorks
Please co-sponsor the #ACTforALS@RepBarragan! You supported this bill last session, and we are hopeful you will co-sponsor again. Eric was born and raised in San Pedro and we still live here today. We need your support and leadership for patients with ALS.
My husband and I fought for continued access to treatment and to improve an archaic regulatory pathway. He died waiting for change, writes Nicole Cimbura https://t.co/ZY6nG9KIFn
