Sign-on Letter on NIH Emergency Funding in Senate HEALS Act

August 06, 2020

To: Speaker Pelosi, Leaders McConnell, McCarthy, and Schumer, Secretary Mnuchin, and Mr. Meadows

"Our progress against COVID-19 – and every other health threat we face – is built on the longstanding bipartisan commitment to medical research. Preserving that investment will be key to continued advances. The Ad Hoc Group urges you to finalize as quickly as possible a relief package with no less than $15.5 billion for NIH, to buoy patients, catalyze cures, drive science, accelerate innovation, and to support the research workforce and local economies. To ensure that the U.S. maintains its ability to provide new and better cures, diagnostics, and treatments for patients everywhere, emergency support for NIH is essential at this critical time."
