I am deeply concerned about recent funding cuts to critical scientific research, including a $65 million delay for Alzheimer’s research centers. These cuts have already forced the cancellation of key studies and scientific meetings, putting life-saving progress at risk. The consequences are severe: Disrupted Research – Critical studies are being halted, delaying medical breakthroughs. Loss of Researchers – Job uncertainty is driving top scientists out of the field. Higher Future Costs – Without continued research, healthcare costs will skyrocket. I urge you to act now by: Restoring lost funding to protect ongoing research. Ensuring stable budgets for the NIH and other institutions. Preventing future cuts that threaten medical and scientific progress. Investing in research is investing in the health and future of our country. Please act now to protect scientific innovation.
