ROADMAP to REFORM
The Lyme Action Network has authored Roadmap to Reform, a comprehensive compendium of evidence-based information that is critical to a complete understanding of the varied dynamics of Lyme and other tick borne diseases. With this document, we request that our elected representatives and governmental policy-makers pursue an informed and unbiased course to create the best public policy possible for the sake of the victims, their families, and their communities. Endorsed by other Lyme support organizations and advocacy groups, this document has been presented to the New York State Senate Task Force on Lyme and Tick Borne Diseases as well as to other legislators. In addition to exploring the challenges faced by the victims of Lyme disease, the Roadmap to Reform offers a twelve point proposed legislative agenda that could help put this troubling issue on the path to resolution.
