PETITION
I hereby petition the American Medical Association (AMA), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Institute of Health Sciences (NIEHS), and World Health Organization (WHO) to support further studies, endorse the full recognition of MCS as a physiological medical condition, and to educate physicians about MCS and environmental illness for the betterment of public health.
To sign the petition send a message by with your name, state, and any title/affiliations to:
petition@mcs-america.org
petition@mcs-america.org
Signatures received after January 25, 2007 will be added to a follow-up petition to be sent to each organization at a later date to show additional support.

TAKE ACTION
Please respond in a show of support by contacting each agency by telephone, fax, mail, or e-mail. Nothing will get attention like lots of calls. If you are willing and able to help, all the contact information is below for your convenience. Included are "free" ways to contact the organizations as much as possible via 800 numbers and e-mail. However, if you are able, a printed letter would have some impact as well. Thank you in advance for your support!
