Save the Ryan White Act Now! Tillman from Maryland

Every 9 1/2 minutes someone in the U.S. is infected with HIV. Without the Ryan White act, many low-income HIV+ individuals will not receive the services they need to survive. SAVE THE RYAN WHITE ACT by September 30, 2009!

Call, e-mail, Facebook or otherwise contact your elected representatives not once, not twice, but daily until you get what you want. On Facebook, you can add Lifelinc Advocacy and join the Save the Ryan White Act for People with HIV group to show your support.

Following is the contact information for Marylands congressional delegation (the most vital members to contact are Sen. Mikulski and Rep. Sarbanes because they sit on committees in charge of Ryan White.) Dont let the Ryan White Act die without doing all you can to save it.
