Subject: Please Support Brianne's Law - Patient Safety Legislation
Dear [Representative/Senator Name],
I am writing as your constituent to urge you to support Brianne's Law: The Patient Transparency and Safety Act.
This legislation would establish critical protections for Michigan patients, including requirements for prognostic truth, informed consent protections, safer hospital transfers, and independent safety audits when preventable deaths occur.
Patients and families deserve complete, honest information about their medical care. Brianne's Law would ensure that Michigan residents receive the transparency and safety protections they need during vulnerable medical situations.
I respectfully request that you:
Thank you for your attention to this critical patient safety issue.
Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your City, MI ZIP] [Your Email] [Your Phone - optional]
