Thank you @VernBuchanan for championing the bipartisan #ASAPAct and for raising the importance of improving early Alzheimer's detection and diagnosis with @POTUS. We're committed to seeing this important bill become law by 2027.
Thanks to @POTUS for having me aboard Air Force One.
We had a good conversation about getting my top priorities done before year’s end, including the ASAP Act to improve early Alzheimer’s detection and the Sunshine Protection Act to make daylight saving time permanent.

Preventive care can make all the difference.
I’m proud of my ASAP Act with @RepPaulTonko, which ensures early access to Alzheimer’s screening to help families plan better and get help sooner. Now let’s get it passed through the House.

Your voice matters. Make it heard. 📞 Call your members of Congress to urge them to support the bipartisan #ASAPAct so we can make routine Alzheimer’s and dementia blood tests the new standard of care. bit.ly/4ty2arf
Thank you @RepLiccardo for your support in the fight to #ENDALZ!
Thank you to the @alzassociation & @alznorcal advocates who joined me in Palo Alto to share their personal stories and experiences.
These conversations remind us why investing in research, early detection, and support for caregivers is so important. Special thanks to Bart and Nancy Westcott and Kate Kriner helping make this happen.
Thank you @RepMcCormick for your support in the fight to #ENDALZ!
It’s always a great day when I get to catch up with my friends at the Georgia Alzheimer’s Association.
Artificial intelligence has the potential to revolutionize medical research, and I look forward to the day we can celebrate the world’s first Alzheimer’s survivor.
Thank you, Jamie and Cabot, for your continued partnership and dedication to this mission.

As many as half of the over 7 million Americans living with Alzheimer's are not diagnosed. That's millions of people who could benefit from early detection – and millions more as these tests are showing promise to detect the disease even before symptoms present.
