  • Rare Disease Congressional Caucus
    Join the Rare Disease Congressional Caucus The bipartisan and bicameral Rare Disease Congressional Caucus is led by Representatives G. K. Butterfield (D-NC) and Gus Bilirakis (R-FL), and Senators Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) to promote awareness of rare disease issues. Background: There are over 7,000 rare disorders that together affect more than 30 million Americans and their families. Rare or orphan diseases are defined as diseases affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. Many rare diseases are considered ultra-rare; some affect fewer than 100 people. Rare diseases include rare cancers, tropical or neglected diseases, genetic diseases and many pediatric diseases including cancers. Many of these diseases are life-threatening and have no treatment options. The Orphan Drug Act was enacted in 1983 to incentivize pharmaceutical companies to develop therapies for diseases that have relatively small patient populations. Despite the success of the Orphan Drug Act, 93% of rare diseases still do not have a treatment approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The science exists for many of these diseases to be treated; however, treatments may never be developed because of roadblocks in the development process, such as a lack of investment and a challenging regulatory environment. Additionally, while relatively few treatments have been approved, patients struggle with health insurance reimbursement and other coverage barriers that prohibit access to potentially lifesaving treatments. Solution: The Rare Disease Congressional Caucus helps bring public and Congressional awareness to the unique needs of the rare disease community (including patients, physicians, scientists, and industry), and creates opportunities to address barriers to the development of and access to life-altering treatments.

The poll finds 41% of registered voters prefer Republican State Senator Leonard Lance while 37% support Democrat Assemblywomen Linda Stender. Among likely voters, Lance leads Stender by 43% to 39%, with 4% choosing a third party candidate and a sizable 14% who are undecided. The seat, which has been held by outgoing GOP Congressman Mike Ferguson since 2001, is one of a number of districts nationally that Democrats have targeted this year. In 2006, Stender came within 3,000 votes of unseating Ferguson. Lance holds a 76% to 6% lead among his fellow Republicans, while Stender has a 74% to 11% advantage among Democratic voters. Independent voters prefer Lance by a slim 34% to 31% margin, although 27% of this voter group are still undecided. Lance’s overall position in the race is bolstered by a strong show of support in his home county of Hunterdon, where he holds a commanding 55% to 31% lead. He is also slightly ahead in the Somerset County portion of the district by 36% to 33%.

    LEGISLATOR US Representative LEONARD LANCE (R-NJ-07) IN OFFICE CONTACT Up for re-election in 2016 Email Contact Form http://lance.house.gov/ 4th Term contact Re-elected in 2014 Web lance.house.gov http://lance.house.gov Twitter @RepLanceNJ7 https://twitter.com/ RepLanceNJ7 Facebook View on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ CongressmanLance? v=wall&ref=ts DC Office 2352 Rayburn House Office Building BGOV BIOGRAPHY By Greg Giroux Leonard Lance, a wonky legislator with a formal demeanor, refers to himself as an “Eisenhower Republican” and as a “strongly conservative fiscal Republican.” His bipartisan impulses and moderate views on social policy have drawn criticism from more conservative Tea Party activists and he has had to fend off primary challengers. In the 114th Congress, Lance serves as New Jersey’s only member of the Energy and Commerce Committee -- he calls it the most important committee in the House because of its wide jurisdiction. On that panel he’s pushed for construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline and opposed the Federal Communications Commission’s net-neutrality rules, which prohibit Internet service providers from blocking or slowing online traffic or offering faster service in return for payment. The FCC’s plan is the “most dramatic government intervention in the Internet in two decades,” Lance said in February 2015. Along with New York Democrat Grace Meng and Texas Republican Joe Barton, a former Energy and Commerce chairman, Lance has promoted legislation to strengthen a prohibition against “caller ID spoofing” by entities that knowingly transit false caller identification information. The House passed their bill in September 2014, though the Senate didn’t act on it.
