Why Your Voice Matters
- Personal visits are powerful. Lawmakers are influenced by the constituents they hear from and the stories they tell.
- Policymakers need to understand your issues. It’s important to help them understand how laws and regulations impact your business and customers.
- Public health responses depend on strong public/private relationships. The medical products industry is a key partner in public health emergencies.
