Take Action for Military Families Affected by Autism - Urge Members of the Armed Services Committee to Support the Sestak Amendment to National Defense Authorization Act

Recently, with the leadership of Congressman Joe Sestak (PA), the House passed comprehensive reforms through the House National Defense Authorization Act (HR 2647) to address the medical needs of military dependents living with autism. The Sestak amendment to the House National Defense Authorization Act requires TRICARE (our military healthcare program) to provide coverage for evidenced-based, medically necessary treatments and therapies for all military dependents with autism. The Sestak Amendment has bipartisan support in the House and Senate, but we need your help to contact key members of the Armed Services Committee and request they include the House language in the final version of the Defense Bill. The support of the Armed Services Committee is vital to the success of these much needed reforms.
