Ask Congress to renew the National Marrow Donor Program! This program located the ONE AND ONLY PERFECT MATCH DONOR who gave me her lifesaving blood stem cells. Somebody's life is depending on it! @NMDP_advocacy

We did it! The President just signed landmark healthcare legislation that will make cancer care more affordable.

We’re grateful for volunteers who held hundreds of meetings with lawmakers & sent 29,000+ letters urging action since 2020. Learn more: https://t.co/wq3sbmfYI6

Today is a great day to send a Medicare Part D cap to @POTUS desk!

We did it! The U.S. House of Representatives just passed key healthcare reforms to make quality cancer care more affordable for millions. THANK YOU to advocates who made it happen!

@RepJasonCrow The final step is up to you. Act quickly and pass historic healthcare reforms that will make quality cancer care more affordable for millions.>> https://t.co/JZWjLb06lI

[Blood Cancer United Advocacy @bcutd_advocacy]

Now, the legislation heads to the U.S. House, where we urge lawmakers to pass it quickly so @potus can sign it into law. Patient lives depend on it. Learn more at: https://t.co/sixM1NKsoP (4/4)

The law also extends enhanced Advance Premium Tax Credits, making health insurance premiums on https://t.co/yFoldUBPq7 more affordable for millions. The extension means that patients have greater access to quality, affordable cancer care. (3/4)

Today, cancer patients with coverage through Medicare Part D face limitless costs for lifesaving drugs. Many spend $10,000 or more out-of-pocket per year for a single drug. Soon, they’ll pay no more than $2,000 per year. (2/4)

We’re elated that the U.S. Senate just passed key healthcare reforms in its Inflation Reduction Act to make quality cancer care more affordable for patients. (1/4)

@SenatorBennet @SenatorHick Remember me? Last year, 3 months of one medication cost the same as this new SUV! I quit Medicare because I couldn't afford the copays. Please stand with patients and pass landmark protections for patients struggling to afford their care. @LLSAdvocacy

[BGore5280 @gore5280]

We need your voice! Tell the Senate: Stand with patients and pass landmark new protections for patients struggling to afford their care.>>https://t.co/11JcmSQ2r7

Anne Fiyalka never forgot her fist time in a plane, nor the pilot who flew it— Amelia Earhart. With the help of @wishofalifetime from AARP, Anne got to take flight once again at the age of 101. https://t.co/kDTjtApzMw

Sophie, a donor, was able to say “yes” when called to donate because her workplace was supportive. The Life Saving Leave Act would ensure donors can say “yes” without fear of losing their jobs. #DonorLeaveSavesLives

It is Healthcare Appreciation Week! Please join us in recognizing and celebrating all the healthcare heroes that make bone marrow, blood stem cell, and cord blood transplants possible. We see you and we are grateful for you! 💚 💙

@RepJasonCrow Please vote YES on H.R. 7667! Every patient should have access to the best care for them--and often that care comes through a clinical trial. We need critical, effective changes that make participation in clinical trials more accessible. >> https://t.co/JOwy7DiWeK
