I appreciate @RepBarragan for stepping up to cosponsor the reauthorization of the national registry. Your leadership is giving many patients, like my daughter a second chance at life. #HR5160#SaveLives
Thank you, @DorisMatsui, for cosponsoring the reauthorization of the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program. My daughter received a lifesaving bone marrow transplant, and I’m grateful for your support. #HR5160#SaveLives
Our Equality Award recipient is Kristin Akin, a caregiver and fierce advocate! 🌟 Her personal story and advocacy helped us secure an unprecedented funding increase from Congress that allows us to recruit more donors and help more patients at the point of diagnosis. #ONEForum
What an unforgettable moment! #Leukemia survivor, Amya, just met her life-saving blood stem cell donor, Eboni, for the very first time. Break out the tissues and check it out. 🥹💙💚 #ONEForum
What a week on Capitol Hill advocating to #ProtectDonorJobs! Help us thank the dozens of passionate advocates who joined us to meet with Congressional offices in support of the Life Saving Leave Act (H.R. 3024) to ensure no donor has to choose between their job and saving a life.
Thank you Jaclyn @RepAnnaEshoo for meeting about HR 7770, Life-Saving Leave Act. Providing nationwide job protection to bone marrow/stem cell donors by authorizing unpaid leave to donate removes a major barrier to donors saying “yes” to save a life! #LifeSavingDonorLeave
I’m honored to be joining @BTMPublicPolicy this week as we ask Congress to pass donor leave legislation that will help save the lives of patients with blood cancers and blood diseases.

Our couriers are the bridge between donors and recipients. Hear from @courierbob about how NMDP/@BeTheMatch couriers could not complete these life-saving transports without steadfast support from @TSA to ensure our couriers can get where they need to go. 💚 💙 ✈️
Thank you, @RepRoybalAllard and team for taking the time to meet with our incredible advocates today to hear how increased funding for the Nation's Registry will save more lives. 💚💙
A bone marrow donor saved my 18 year olds life when she was battling an aggressive leukemia. She wouldn’t get here today without him and the National Donor Registry . Looking forward to working with @SenFeinstein@SenAlexPadilla@RepScottPeters @BTMPublicPolicy
