With post-9/11 security measures in place, a written letter can take weeks before it arrives at the desk of your representative. So, for timely consideration of your views, we strongly recommend that you either fax or e-mail all correspondence.

If you wish to contact your Congressman in regards to H.R.
2329, feel free to use the following letter as a guide.
Dear Congressman _________:
I am writing to ask you to support H.R. 2329, the Hearing
Aid Tax Credit Bill. Very few health insurances
cover hearing aids and Medicare excludes them from
coverage. As a result, Americans with a hearing
loss are forced to pay out of their own pockets
for hearing aids that can cost as much as $2-$3,000
each. Something has to be done to help people get
the hearing aids they need.
(Include a paragraph talking about your own experience with hearing loss and trying to afford hearing aids that you need)
Please sign on as a cosponsor of this bill. I thank you for considering this
