From a Solve email.
It’s finally here – our 2020 ME/CFS Advocacy Week D.C. schedule!
Once again, we’ll be bringing the national ME/CFS community together in Washington, D.C. to advocate for more action and research funding. In addition to our ME/CFS Advocacy Day (where we connect real patients with members of Congress) on Tuesday, April 21, Solve M.E. will also be hosting several educational and community-building events in our nation’s capital throughout the week. At the same time, our friends and neighbors across the country will be joining us by webcast, local advocacy actions and on social media.
This is our 4th Annual Advocacy Week, and each year brings a bigger turnout than the year before AND more opportunities to gather together in the name of progress for ME/CFS!

I hope you will join us in storming Capitol Hill to share our stories and raise awareness about ME/CFS with those who have the power to aid our cause at the federal level. Together, we can make a difference!
You can always visit http://go.solvecfs.org/e/192652/202...h=yWXZDYsarFdl7Z4Bca4DD7M2Ce9oxabapDviszO4hqQ for more information.
