We’re asking House and Senate Labor–HHS Appropriations to make sure the National Plan to End Parkinson’s is actually implemented, not just celebrated. #whereisthePDplan

"As someone living with Parkinson’s, I know how easily communication can be misread in high-stress encounters with law enforcement. The Blue Envelope Programs Act is a way to make those encounters safer, and more respectful.” - Larry Gifford, President of PD Avengers
Today, I introduced the bipartisan Supporting Blue Envelope Programs Act with @RepRutherfordFL. Blue Envelope Programs work, in the Inland Empire and in 29 states nationwide, helping first responders communicate safely with people with Autism & I/DD. I'm excited to lead this effort to expand them nationwide.

Two years after Congress passed the National Plan to End Parkinson’s and 17 months after it became law, we still haven’t seen a public PD plan. #whereisthePDplan
