Advocacy Update: The House and Senate have officially passed the ACT for ALS Reauthorization Act, sending this critical legislation to the President's desk for signature.

This bipartisan achievement is a testament to the power of advocacy and the voices of people living with ALS, caregivers, families, researchers, clinicians, and supporters across the country.

The ACT for ALS has helped accelerate research, expand access to treatments, and improve support for the ALS community. We are one step closer to ensuring these vital programs continue.

Thank you to everyone who took action and helped make this progress possible. Together, we are driving hope forward.
