Act Now

Take Action on the Alpha-gal Allergen Inclusion Act!

Please use this form to urge your member of the US House of Representatives to cosponsor the Alpha-gal Allergen Inclusion Act.

This bipartisan bill would require the FDA to add alpha-gal to the list of major food allergens.

Right now, there is no requirement to list alpha-gal on food labels, and people with alpha-gal syndrome have to guess whether a product contains the allergen that could harm them. If the bill passes, disclosing alpha-gal on the label of most packaged foods will be required.
