Help Override The President’s Veto

 

Dear Friend:

For more than one year, my colleagues and I at United Spinal Association have been working with bipartisan members of the House of Representatives and the Senate to reform proposed Medicare policies that will have disastrous consequences for paralyzed Americans and others who are reliant upon Medicare.

Last week, the House and the Senate both passed a new Medicare bill that would address our concerns on wheelchair purchasing, complex rehab wheelchairs, physician reimbursement rates and access to psychiatric services.

The bill, H.R. 6331, passed both the House and the Senate by a remarkable margin.

Now, the President has vowed to veto the bill altogether. Please help us stop this injustice by telling your Representative and Senators to override the President’s veto.

Follow this link to tell your Senators and Representative that you support United Spinal Association’s efforts on H.R. 6331, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act.

Thank you for support in this effort to improve the quality of lives of all Americans with spinal cord injuries and disorders.

Sincerely,

Paul Tobin, Uniteed Spinal Associatton President

Paul J. Tobin
President
United Spinal Association
