ACTION ALERT – Second House Vote Today!
Our first attempt to get an autism insurance reform bill through the Kansas House of Representatives did not succeed today. But we get a second chance tomorrow, Wednesday!
The original Kansas Autism Insurance Reform Bill, HB.2764, will be called for a vote. Contact your Kansas House Representative again and ask them to vote YES for HB.2764 with NO amendments.
We’re coming down to the wire! Every phone call and email counts!
| Here is How YOU Can Help: |
|
1) CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE AND ASK THEM TO VOTE YES FOR HB.2764 WITH NO AMENDMENTS Call your Representative here Rep. Marvin Kleeb Say, “I am a constituent of Representative [name] and I am asking that he/she votes YES for HB.2764 to help Kansas children with autism. Please reject any other amendments that may be offered. Thank you!” 2) EMAIL YOUR HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE: 3) GET YOUR FRIENDS TO HELP. Post the following, or something like it, on your favorite form of social media including Facebook and Twitter. “Attention Kansas Friends! I need your help. The Kansas House of Representatives will vote again on WEDNESDAY for a bill to expand autism insurance reform to help kids all over Kansas. Take action on the link below and write DONE so I can thank you!” |
The Kansas Autism Insurance Reform bill will improve on our 2010 law which provides autism insurance coverage to state employees. HB.2764 will extend the same coverage to all state-regulated group plans for individuals with autism through age 18. We know autism is treatable – and passing HB.2764 will help more children with autism here in Kansas gain appropriate access to the medical treatments and therapies they need to lead more independent lives!
Keep up the calling and emailing!
