Many Roosevelt residents may remember Judy and Norm Nahmias who lived on Farm Lane. Their daughter, Debbie Nahmias Dauer, grew up in Roosevelt and has been diagnosed with ALS. Judy is asking that we write a letter to State Senator Thompson requesting that Bill S1575 be heard by the NJ State Senate. The letter below can serve as a model:
Right to Try Act S1575
Senator Samuel Thompson
2501 Highway 516
Suite 101
Old Bridge, NJ 08857
Dear Senator Thompson,
Please allow this important bill to be heard in committee. My neighbor’s daughter has ALS and the Right to Try Act S1575 would allow her and many other terminally ill patients to receive access to developing drugs and treatment. Many of these drugs have passed stage one of trials. If they have to wait until they are finally approved by the FDA it will be too late.
Thank you for your consideration.
Your Name
