There are no Urgent Action Alerts at this time.

During critical stages of the congressional appropriations process, the SID issues Urgent Action Alerts. Members are asked to contact their legislative officials to request support for additional funding for programs that fund skin disease research.

Contacting your elected officials is easy. Choose either of the methods listed below:

On the web:
1. Visit Congress.org

2. Enter your 5 digit zip code. Click on "info" below the picture of your specific targeted Legislator. (If you are asked for a 9-digit zip code, simply enter your home address.)

3. This page contains your senators’ contact information including office addresses, fax numbers, and email addresses (both local and in Washington D.C.) and other links.

By Phone:
Call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at 202-225-3121 to get your legislators' names and contact information.
