New Action Alert Challenge
The Office of Public Affairs is back with another Action Alert Challenge! Start the year right by supporting protections for IVF and reproductive rights at the state and federal levels.
Are you an ASRM member looking to up your advocacy game? Join the Office of Public Affairs’ second Action Alert Challenge, underway now! Entering is easy—when you see an Action Alert in your inbox or on our socials, click on the link provided to take action. Our system makes calling, emailing, and tagging your reps easier than ever. Watch the video below to learn the role our Action Alerts play in the legislative process.
We send Action Alerts to our members to inform them of legislation affecting IVF and reproductive rights in their state and at the federal level. The quickest way to affect change in your district is by forging a relationship with your representatives, and the best way to strengthen this relationship is by contacting them regularly about the issues that matter to you.
The April leaderboard is posted. Don’t see yourself listed? Keep interacting with our Action Alerts to move up in the ranks. Please contact publicaffairs@asrm.org with any questions.
Ready, set, advocate!
