We know you’re getting a lot of emails about Donald Trump’s consistent attacks on funding for lifesaving programs, like Medicaid and Social Security.
So you’re probably not expecting an email about this:
It’s tick season, and it’s critical that we fund Lyme disease research to protect folks across the country.
Here are the facts you should know as we head into tick season:
FACT SHEET:
- Every year, there are 300,000 new cases of Lyme disease, mostly in New England.
- Those infected suffer symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and even neurological impact — sometimes over long periods of time.
- RFK Jr. and Donald Trump are using a loophole to block funding to continue research on diagnosing and treating Lyme disease.

We deserve a government that funds research to fight infectious diseases like Lyme disease.

Thank you for joining us,
Team Hassan
