AASM PAC — Empowering Sleep Medicine Through Advocacy

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) enhances our advocacy through our nonpartisan Political Action Committee (PAC), established on November 26, 1997, to support the needs of patients in sleep medicine. We’re thrilled to announce a new donor recognition program, PAC Perks. This new program will assist the AASM PAC Advisory Panel in expanding our resources and engaging members. Your support will help us advocate for favorable policies that benefit patients and practitioners alike. Join us in making a difference and enjoy some great perks while advocating for better sleep health for all!
