@DrMakaryFDA@US_FDA We need your support now @DrMakaryFDA! The ataxia community cannot wait any longer. As CEO of @NAF_Ataxia, I see firsthand the terrible toll of this disease. We hear all the time about regulatory flexibility...please make sure your team uses it! https://t.co/rxLYnaeU71
2nd amendment supporters don’t want kids to die.
Gun control supporters don’t want to confiscate all guns.
Stop listening to the radical extremes and let’s talk about solutions that can actually reduce violence.
Big news! @BillNye is talking about Ataxia in Men’s Health—and NAF is proud to be part of the conversation.
Check out how he's using his platform to shine a light on rare diseases like Ataxia:

President Trump just shut down external communications, hiring, and other agency functions at NIH—a devastating blow to their lifesaving medical research.
I'm leading the call with Sen. @ChrisVanHollen and @Sen_Alsobrooks to restore full operations at @NIH and across HHS now.
Ataxia, often misdiagnosed as Parkinson's or MS, has affected Bill Nye's family — and now he's spreading the word on genetic testing. https://t.co/5GxLRVvGVe
