Support HR 1428 - VA Presumption of Exposure to AO for Parkinson's Disease
Support HR 1428 - Include Parkinson’s Disease Among the Diseases Presumed Caused by Agent Orange. Take Action!

 
Please send the following editable message to your Representative -- I urge you to con-sponsor and actively support HR 1428, which was introduced by Representative Bob Filner on March 11. HR 1428 would include Parkinson's Disease among the eleven diseases already presumed to be the result of exposure to Agent Orange in the Republic of Viet Nam during the period January 1962 through May 1975. Apparently, within the past decade, the VA has documented very significant increase of Parkinson's disease among those who served in Viet Nam as compared to the general population. Again, please support this important legislation.
