One of the August Recess visits was a visit from the Society's South Central Region with Congressman Pete Olson (TX-22), a member of the Congressional MS Caucus. On August 28th, Congresman Olson and his district staff member, Trey, met with MS Activists and had an informed discussion about the improtance of MS Research funding. Congressman Olson, his wife, and Trey and his wife have all ridden in the BP MS 150! The BP MS 150 is a two-day 180 mile fundraising cycling ride, beginning in Houston, Texas and finishing in Austin, Texas.
We hope you've enjoyed the pictures of MS Activists with their members of August Recess. Thank you to all of the MS Activists who met with legislators and e-mailed us photos, as well as the legislators who took time to meet with the MS Activists!
