Thank you for calling Senate Majority Leader Bishop last week! We heard from many of you who indicated that they spoke with his office and they were being deluged with calls regarding the movement of autism insurance reform legislation before the end of the year.
With the legislative clock ticking down, now more than ever we need Senator Bishop and the members of the Michigan Senate to provide principled leadership and move autism insurance legislation forward this year!
Here is how you can help:
Please spend two minutes making two phone calls:
1. First, call Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop AGAIN and ask him to move autism insurance reform legislation forward now. Please be polite when you call. Ask for his principled leadership on this issue. Let him know that autism insurance coverage means a great deal to your family and will also be the fiscally responsible thing to do for the state of Michigan.
Senate Majority Leader Michael D. Bishop - (517) 373-2417
If you happen to be sent to voice mail, please leave a message.
2. Then, call YOUR Michigan Senator and ask for their support in ensuring movement of autism insurance reform legislation this session. (You can find out who your Michigan State Senator is and their phone number here.) If you would like to see how your Senator responded to the survey we sent out a few weeks ago, or to see if your Senator even responded at all, please check for their name on the Candidate Guide. Feel free to ask your Senator or their staff the questions posed in the survey if they have not yet responded.
3. Please forward this e-mail to at least ten of your friends, asking them to make these two critical calls as well.
Thank you for your continued advocacy and focus. Please stay up to date by visiting

regularly. Passage of meaningful autism insurance reform legislation is the right thing to do and now is the right time to do it in the State of Michigan.
Let’s make it happen!
