Thank you to Autism Action Network for continuing to educate the community. We know money is as tight as Grandad’s pants after Thanksgiving dinner. A $5 donation, if possible, would make a difference. We have strength in numbers. The community is banding together behind Congressman Posey, putting the children (many of whom are now young and/or full fledged adults) FIRST. Thank you.
Please help Congressman Bill Posey continue to help us.
Many of you will spend $50 for a bottle of supplements without batting an eye. It is long past time for the autism community to support the elected officials who support us at great political risk to themselves. Representative Bill Posey is a firm and courageous friend of the autism community.
Please help him continue to help us.
From our friends at Generation Rescue:
Many of us know that Congressman Bill Posey has been an outspoken supporter in Washington for our children with autism. Because we desperately need people with integrity and honestly like Bill Posey in Congress. There will be two pieces to the event.
The online donation goal from the community is $15,000. We are hoping that everyone who can afford to will consider giving at least $25 to help raise this amount through social media and email lists to all our fellow autism parents, grandparents and supporters. Please send this link far and wide:

The second piece is a reception honoring Congressman Posey. The event is being held on August 13th in Melbourne, FL at The Palm Cafe located in The Kiwi Tennis Club. A host reception will start at 5:30pm and the general reception begins 7:30pm. The host committee is being formed and is a minimum $1,000 individual donation. Individual contribution is $150 for attendance.
So far the following individuals have joined the host committee for this event:
Jennifer Larson of the Canary Party and Health Choice
Sallie Bernard of Safeminds and Autism Speaks
JB Handley of Generation Rescue
Tony Lyons of Shy Horse Publishing
Barry Segal of Focus Autism
Mark Blaxill of the Canary Party and Health Choice
Dr. Gary Kompothecras
Teri Costigan
I want to remind everyone of Congressman Posey’s work. This link is the text to his Vaccine Safety Act Bill in Washington, and a YouTube video put together by Ginger Taylor for this event.
I hope some of you can make it to this event and if you can’t please consider giving generously to the Congressman with the online donation effort. He continues to support our cause and we should support him. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Jennifer directly at jlarson@vibrant.com.
