 Important

Refer to the article links below on the proposal to revoke the Polio Vaccine.

All of us know through our very lives since we contracted polio know how dangerous and devastating this proposed action would be to the USA and the rest of the world.

We will need to be sure our voices are heard if revoking the vaccine is seriously considered.

We need to contact our state and federal representatives (see link below to find contacts).

 

As this progresses, we will keep you posted.
