We appreciate the demands on your schedule, so the AAO-HNS is making it even easier to make your voice heard on the issues that matter most to the specialty. With our new grassroots advocacy software, it only takes one click to make an impact.

Past Congressional outreach by AAO-HNS members has truly made a difference. Last year, several Capitol Hill offices advised that their decision to not support or co-sponsor critical legislation opposed by the AAO-HNS was due to the direct messages from YOU—the otolaryngologists in their districts and states.

Interested? Visit the Academy’s new grassroots advocacy website (https://entadvocacy.org/) to send your Members of Congress a pre-written email with just one click. Each call to action includes important background information on the legislation/issue and an email which pre-populates once the web form is completed.

You CAN make a difference with just one click! Questions? Contact the AAO-HNS Advocacy team at govtaffairs@entnet.org.
