The Crohn’s and Colitis Caucus is a bi-partisan group of Members of Congress dedicated to educating their colleagues and the American public on Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, collectively known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The Caucus works together to raise awareness, support IBD medical research, and protect patient access to care. The Caucus also works to assert the patient perspective in regulatory decision-making, including the development of a biosimilar regulatory pathway.
