The Christopher Reeves Paralysis Act, if passed through Congress, would benefit many sufferers from many different types of disabilities! Help expedite the cure for paralysis!

30 seconds is all it takes to fill this out and send it!

There is NO controversy involving cellular science with this Act!

This Bill's purpose is to help connect scientists doing similar work to enhance understanding and speed discovery of better treatments and cures. As many of us know, there is very little correspondence in the medical community about our type of injury. The same holds true for individual researchers trying to find cures. A lot of research is redundant, different scientists working on the same thing at the same time, with out the knowledge of possible collaborations. This would help unify that while also making researchers more aware of previous studies that are gathering dust in laboratory closets. Utilizing the Veteran?s Health Administration facilities to improve paralysis research by tracking data within the world?s largest system of hospitals.

We are all in the same boat, so lets paddle together! Please...

Thanks,
Chris

PS - While at the site, there are three other campaigns you can support with a click of a button. They involve Stem Cells. If you have a problem with that, then don't. But if you have questions about it, then be curious and read what is proposed and what is at stake. One of them is fighting to ban the possibility of human cloning.

And once you've entered in your info, it comes up automatically again. So supporting the other campaigns is really just a click away...
