Legislative Alert!

Protect Patients' Access to Palliative Care

Issue: Pain Relief Promotion Act Contact: Christopher Ptomey

Your help is needed today to stop the Pain Relief Promotion Act and thereby protect patients’ access to the best, most appropriate palliative care. This legislation would intimidate physicians and discourage effective pain care by threatening DEA intervention and review of doctors’ decisions to prescribe medications. Your representative, senators, and the President need to hear from you NOW! It is vital that they understand that this legislation would prevent patients both in their hometowns and around the country from receiving the medical care that they require. URGENT ACTION NEEDED Your help is needed TODAY! Your senators and representatives need to hear from you. They need to know that the “Pain Relief Promotion Act” would threaten patients’ access to necessary palliative care.
