4 What is the Treatment Action Network?
TAN is the largest national grassroots network of individuals lobbying on HIV/AIDS research and treatment
I issues. TAN members communicate with their representatives on federal HIV/AIDS appropriations and legis01 lation, with a strong emphasis on treatment and health care access. From time to time, TAN members are also
I asked to contact the FDA or drug companies to push forward access to promising treatments.
I What do TAN members receive?
TAN members receive regular mailings containing updates on federal activity and Action Alerts on timely
issues that need your attention. TAN Alerts provide substantial background information and sample letters/
phone messages so that you are well-informed when communicating with your elected officials.
TAN members are also notified about actions and events in their local areas, and are invited to participate in
AIDSWatch, a yearly citizen-lobbying event in Washington, D.C.
What does it cost to be a TAN member?
U_ Other than a few stamps and occasional long-distance phone calls, the only cost of participating in this imporg e tant network is a few minutes every month communicating with your representatives about issues that affect
you every day.
I There is power in numbers. Please join TAN today.
