Congressman Tony Wied shared why he introduced the BLOOD Centers Act at an event at the Community Blood Center:

Community blood centers shouldn’t face unnecessary bureaucratic slowdowns when they’re trying to help more people.

The bill gives them a faster way to safely open new locations.

More access → more donations → more lives saved.

Ask your members of Congress to support this bill: https://bit.ly/4otkr6F

Your voice matters in shaping the future of blood policy. 🩸

ABC members: The 2026 Advocacy Agenda development is underway, and we need YOUR input. Our annual survey helps us identify the federal legislative and regulatory priorities that matter most to blood centers across the country.

What gets prioritized?
✓ Issues with clear federal solutions
✓ Direct impacts on blood center operations and sustainability
✓ Challenges requiring national-level advocacy

In 2025, we've already seen major wins: elimination of the FDA final rule on Lab Developed Tests, draft guidance on Hepatitis B Surface Antigen testing, and new congressional bills to modernize licensure and expand blood availability.

Let's keep the momentum going. Complete the survey by December 5th and help ensure community blood centers have a strong voice in Washington: https://bit.ly/4oVtVZE

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

Real talk: While you're scrolling through this post, 15 people just needed a blood transfusion.

To every single donor who rolled up their sleeve this year, you're literally the reason someone is sitting at their Thanksgiving table today.

Not 'making a difference.' Not 'doing good.'

Actually. Saving. Lives.

6 million of you donated this year. If you're reading this and you're one of them: Drop a ❤️ below so we can celebrate YOU.

And to our members, thank you for making it all possible.

Grateful doesn't even begin to cover it.

Many people stop themselves from donating blood because of myths:
❌ “I’m on medication.”
❌ “I’m diabetic.”
❌ “I have tattoos.”

✅ The facts: Most medications don’t disqualify you. Diabetics on well-managed insulin can donate. Tattoos aren’t a barrier.

Myths shouldn’t stop you from saving lives. Watch our new short and download our myth fact toolkit for more resources: https://bit.ly/3Y94QOC

We ran the numbers, and they stopped us in our tracks:

Every 2 seconds, someone in America needs blood. While families enjoy a 90-minute Thanksgiving meal, 2,700 patients - enough to fill 300 dinner tables - will require life-saving transfusions.

Here's the gap: 62% of Americans are eligible to donate. Only 3% actually do.

The math is simple. The impact is profound. One donation saves multiple lives.
