Dear Chairman Cole, Chairwoman Collins, Ranking Member DeLauro, and Vice Chair Murray:
We are writing on behalf of the Diabetes Advocacy Alliance (DAA) to express our concerns with the Administration’s proposed Fiscal Year 2027 (FY27) budget and the impact on agencies and programs that play an indispensable role in addressing the health needs of more than 37 million Americans living with diabetes and over 98 million with prediabetes. Since 2010, the DAA has worked with policymakers and legislators to increase awareness of the diabetes epidemic and to support policies that improve the health and well-being of people living with diabetes and prediabetes.
