We just marked America’s 250th birthday — two and a half centuries built on the idea that people with different views can come together on what matters most. That spirit is alive right now in the fight against Alzheimer’s. 

Look at who’s leading the ASAP Act. In the Senate: Susan Collins, a Republican from Maine, and Catherine Cortez Masto, a Democrat from Nevada. Shelley Moore Capito, a Republican from West Virginia, and Mark Warner, a Democrat from Virginia. In the House: Vern Buchanan, a Republican from Florida, and Paul Tonko, a Democrat from New York. Bipartisan sponsors, both chambers. That’s not an accident. 

Alzheimer’s doesn’t check your voter registration before it takes someone’s memory. In AIM’s national survey, 38% of voters have family or friends affected by Alzheimer’s — 41% of Trump voters, 40% of Harris voters. Nearly identical. And support tracks the same way: 86% of Trump voters and 92% of Harris voters back this. I walk through what that means for your advocacy in this week’s episode of the ASAP Minute. 

▶ Watch Episode 10: Not Red, Not Blue — Purple 

This isn’t a red issue or a blue issue. It’s purple. And that means walking into any congressional office, regardless of party, you can say your constituents want this — not some of them, nearly all of them. 

Common ground is rare in this Congress. This is some of the most solid ground there is. Tell your member of Congress you’re one of the voters counting on it.
