Thank you to Senator Katie Boyd Britt for leading a July 24 14-member letter to Office of Management and Budget asking for proper disbursement of appropriated FY25 NIH research funds. This funding is crucial in the fight against cancer nationwide. We hope we can count on you to #ProtectCancerCures in FY26, too.

Today, the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations considered and approved its draft FY26 appropriations bill that includes increases for: ✅ NIH ✅ Federal #CancerResearch funding at National Cancer Institute ✅ CDC Cancer Read the full statement: fightcancer.org/releases/us-se… (1/2)

"We should never allow lifesaving cancer research to be at risk. But a proposed federal budget that came out of Washington included a nearly 40% cut in funding for the NIH. This would take us back to funding levels from the early 2000s." tinyurl.com/4e6uzm9k AL.com

“Research is really important, but prevention is really key... A lot of funding that comes into Alabama for breast and cervical cancer screenings, early detection screening, it’s from that CDC funding” shorturl.at/U1oZ2
