Markey, Country Music Star Address Alzheimer’s

Country music star Glenn Campbell joined US Representative Edward Markey (D-Malden) for a special press conference Wednesday to call for urgent action to prevent and cure Alzheimer’s disease. Rep. Markey, whose mother suffered from the disease, authored bipartisan legislation in 2010 that creates a National Alzheimer’s plan. Campbell, who recently was diagnosed with the disease, attended the press conference with his family and held a concert on Capitol Hill Wednesday night. Courtesy photo.
