I just registered to rally for Access to Alzheimer's treatments. Will you join me? https://t.co/7qU9BGJBy5

The #AlzCareAct would ask @CMSinnovates to test a different payment structure for dementia care management, potentially streamlining today's complicated health care maze for Illinois families affected by this disease. @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 2517! #ENDALZ

We need a better understanding of why dementia impacts some populations more than others. @RepDannyDavis, thank you for cosponsoring the #ENACTAct to ensure everyone benefits from advances in Alzheimer’s & dementia science! #ENDALZ

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

We need to update and expand our national plan to address Alzheimer’s! Through the #NAPAAct, we can improve our nation’s care & support response, emphasize healthy aging & risk reduction, and seek to address health disparities. @RepDannyDavis, pls cosponsor H.R. 7775! #ENDALZ

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

We must keep moving Alzheimer’s research forward! @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 7773 so Congress continues to hear directly from NIH on how much research funding is needed to prevent and effectively treat Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. #ENDALZ #AlzInvestmentAct

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

With the original provisions of the Alzheimer’s Accountability and Investment Act set to expire in 2025, Congress must act now to ensure that progress continues to be made in Alzheimer’s research. @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 7773! #ENDALZ #AlzInvestmentAct

During Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, I #GoPurple for all those impacted by Alzheimer’s and other dementias”]. @RepDannyDavis, join me in going purple during June to raise awareness! #ENDALZ #AlzILAdvocacy

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

The National Alzheimer’s Project Act is set to expire in 2025, but our progress cannot end there. @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 7775 to continue addressing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia through 2035! #ENDALZ

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

The bipartisan Alzheimer’s Accountability and Investment Act would maintain the Alzheimer’s Bypass Budget process. @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 7773 to continue the research needed to #ENDALZ! #AlzInvestmentAct

District 7 (Danny Davis)

We must continue to address Alzheimer’s and all other dementia as a national priority. @RepDannyDavis, please cosponsor H.R. 7775 to extend the National Alzheimer’s Project Act through 2035! #NAPAAct #ENDALZHEIMERS

More than 6M Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, our nation’s most expensive disease. That’s why Congress must continue its commitment to addressing this public health crisis. @RepDannyDavis, please fund the #BOLDAlzheimersAct at $30M in FY23! #ENDALZ

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

While deaths from heart disease decline ⬇️, Alzheimer’s deaths continue to skyrocket ⬆️. We must change the trajectory of this disease. @RepDannyDavis, please support an additional $226M for Alzheimer’s and dementia research funding in FY23! #ENDALZ

[Lela Grimble @lcgrimble]

Alzheimer’s and other dementia disproportionately affect older Black and Hispanic Americans, yet too often clinical trial staff and participants don’t reflect the U.S. population. @RepDannyDavis, thank you for cosponsoring the #ENACTAct to address this disparity! #ENDALZ
