AAKP National Patient Meeting Session Recordings OnDemand will be available soon!
We were pleased to start our 2025 National Patient Meeting with AAKP President Ed Hickey’s opening and introduction of our special friend and ally, U.S. Representative Beth Van Duyne (R-TX), Co-Chair of the Congressional Organ Transplant Caucus. Representative Van Duyne thanked kidney patients and organ donors for their support for bipartisan legislation to improve transplant readiness and transplant opportunities. She encouraged us to keep raising our voices within the policy process – an easy thing to do via AAKP’s KidneyVoter™ initiative!
