How to pass ""&"" through an api call

I'm using a button to create a record table to table. Everything is passing over correctly except this part

& "&_fid_22=" & "Case Analysis & Strategy"
Its only going over as "Case Analysis". I thought the solution was to put it as:

& "&_fid_22=" & "Case Analysis \& Strategy"

But that didn't seem to do the trick. How do I need to format it to carry over the whole string?

    & "&_fid_22=" & URLEncode("Case Analysis & Strategy")

    The internet "rules" are that URLs may not have spaces in them or special characters, so you need to URLEncode
