I am currently compiling your personal stories about how this disease impacts our families to present to members of Congress. Please email your representative today and demand they prioritize the National Alzheimer's Project Act. We need to keep this pressure on until they cannot ignore us anymore.

My mother passed away from this horrible disease in 2012. It destroyed our family. We need a cure now before another generation has to watch their parents fade away like that.
About time the government took this serious. We are spending way too much money on other things when people are suffering every single day.
