Lifelong AIDS Alliance and the Association of Nutrition Services Agencies (ANSA) are thrilled to announce that Representatives James McGovern and Jo Ann Emerson have recently re-introduced legislation calling for a White House Conference on Food and Nutrition to be held by December 31, 2010. 

We have long-advocated for such a conference to address how the United States will meet the nutritional needs of the more than 36 million Americans who experience food insecurity – including more than 5 million seniors and critically ill men, women and children.

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

I am contacting you today to voice my support, and that of the Association of Nutrition Services Agencies (ANSA), of Representatives James McGovern and Jo Ann Emerson's re-introduced legislation calling for a White House Conference on Food and Nutrition.

This much-needed conference would address how the United States will meet the nutritional needs of the more than 36 million Americans who experience food insecurity - including more than 5 million seniors and critically ill men, women and children.

As your constituent, I am urging you to sign on as a co-sponsor of H.R. 1869, a bill requiring a White House Conference on Food and Nutrition, to be held by December 31, 2010.

Thank you very much for your time, and I hope you will do your part to help us address the needs of the hungry in our communities.

Sincerely,
