Advocate,
There are only a handful of days left in the Congressional calendar, and with that, we have limited opportunities left to pass the PASTEUR Act.
It’s as simple as this: Because people with cystic fibrosis live with a heightened risk for infection, and antibiotic resistance infections are not going away, we need new antibiotics to treat infections. According to research by the Centers for Disease Control, the U.S. already spends $4.6 billion annually to respond to these types of infections. Passing the PASTEUR Act can save lives — and money — by fostering a healthy pipeline of antibiotics.
Its time to hold your members of Congress accountable. Urge action from your members of Congress to pass PASTEUR. We can’t wait any longer for new antibiotics.
