Happening this Thursday!
The Senate is deciding funding for vision and eye health programs. That includes CDC’s Vision Health Initiative and NIH’s National Eye Institute. Cuts are on the table, which could impact care across the country.
Visit the @PBA_savingsight Legislative Action Center to ask your Senators to protect vision, eye health, and essential public health infrastructure.
