National Call-In for Parity

September 10, 2008

With Congress back in session this week and only a short time left, it must pass mental health parity legislation. This is the moment to remind lawmakers that parity legislation is critical, unfinished business.

Never in the almost two-decade fight for parity have we been closer to victory. If Congress fails to bring parity to a vote before adjourning later this month, we must restart the push for parity in 2009. Help us win its passage by joining in the National Call-in for Parity tomorrow, September 10.

National Call-in for Parity
Please call each of your U.S. Senators and your U.S. Representative using the toll-free Parity Hotline: 1-866-parity4 (1-866-727-4894). The Parity Hotline reaches the U.S. Capitol switchboard, which can connect callers to the offices of their members. You can also call the Capitol switchboard directly: 202-224-3121.

Click here to find the names of your senators and representative.

The Message: “I’m calling to ask the Senator/Representative to press congressional leaders to bring mental health parity legislation to a vote.  It’s critical that Congress pass parity legislation this year.”
