On March 18th, the President signed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (H.R. 6201) – a legislative package that contains important provisions that could affect people living with MS. The U.S. House of Representatives passed this legislation on March 14th and the U.S. Senate passed this legislation on March 18th. Patients with chronic health conditions are uniquely vulnerable to the effects of COVID-19 and the National MS Society will continue to work with Congress on future protections.
