Ask Your Legislators to Wear Red on Friday and celebrate American Heart Month!

It's February 1, marking the start of American Heart Month! There are exciting things happening across Illinois and our nation this month as we work to raise awareness about America's number one killer - heart disease.

Join us in wearing red this Friday, February 4, for National Wear Red Day.

Ask Your Legislators to Wear Red on Friday in celebration of National Wear Red Day!

A recent report from the American Heart Association stated that the cost of treating cardiovascular disease will TRIPLE over the next 20 years unless we are focused on education, prevention and advancing positive public policy changes. That is why it's important that you Ask Your Legislators to Wear Red on Friday in celebration of National Wear Red Day and work on public policies that will make Illinois - and our nation - healthier for all of us!

Make sure to check out our Go Red Connect Events happening in your area this week.

Thank you for your continued support!
