Please call your senator to cosponsor Autism Insurance Parity (Shayan's Law)!

WAA Coaltion members,

Give a loved one with autism 5 minutes, call your senator and ask them to end autism insurance discrimination by signing on as a cosponsor to Shayan's Law, Autism Insurance Parity(AIP).

1.     Call your own district's senator (click here to find their contact information)

If your not sure what to say try this:

"My name is _________ and I'm your constituent.  I am calling to ask Senator______to cosponsor Shayan's Law (SB5059)-Autism Insurance Parity (Prime Sponsor Sen. Ed. Murray).  Shayan's law requires private insurance coverage of autism under Washington's Mental Health Parity.  Individuals with autism are entitled to the full coverage that Mental Health Parity offers.  23 other states have already passed laws that require private insurance to cover autism diagnosis and medically necessary treatments.  This is an extremely important bill for our family and critical to helping my child/grandchild/neice/nephew/other gain access to appropriate health care benefits. Thank you so much for your consideration.  Please let me know when Senator______ has signed on as a cosponsor."

If they have any questions please refer them to Senator Ed. Murray's office.

2.     Multiply your efforts! Forward this note to everyone who supports individuals with autism (teachers, therapists, family, coworkers, other community members) and ask them to:

Thank you in advance for your calls.

Peacefully,
Arzu
