Will do, Tincup. Neither senator, nor my rep has not signed on yet. Not surprising, given the individuals in question. Maybe I can make the argument that we have to prevent borrelia from illegally crossing the state border. That argument would probably appeal to them :-)
Up for other Tennesseans....

I will be excited to look more into this as well. I will get my group of friends together on this. I have already made some tick cupcakes--red velvet cake and choc icing with red m&m eyes and twizzler legs- for my county and state health dept. They might not report me according to CDC standards (I only came up IGM 23, 31, and 44 for b. burgdorferi.) .. but they won't forget this face of lyme!

Excellent!
We need the Task Force it will create to get everyone working together on getting something accomplished.
And the $100 million over the next 5 years to help develop a test that WORKS would be nice too!
Not to mention a possible cure!
So it is VERY important for Tennessee folks to call them because they won't listen too well to others until they do!
Thanks!!!!
And don't forget.. you don't have to have Lyme to call! Please get everyone you know to do it.
