Many others working behind the scenes made this happen, including @notjustfatigue.bsky.social. We're glad to see that the appropriations language landed in a good place for funding for #MECFS.

Even with knowledge of all the obstacles that remain, it's very good news. /fin

This year, #NotJustFatigue partnered with @meactnet.bsky.social to meet with congressional representatives to get the ME/CFS Research Roadmap funded. Wanna help? Please call your representative if you’re in these areas or get your friends/family to call if they’re in these areas about funding it

Link to the opinion piece our founder Elizabeth Ansell co-authored in @statnews.com today. It argues for a more inclusive RECOVER Initiative. We at @notjustfatigue.bsky.social have spent almost a year advocating that ME/CFS be included in the RECOVER Initiative.
