Senator Tammy Baldwin Criticizes Administration's Impact on NIH Funding and Biomedical Research

Published | Video Starts at 04:26

I want to mention a few examples because details here matter. NIH has delayed $65 million in funding for 14 Alzheimer's disease research centers in nine states, including at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. It NIH has delayed $47 million in cancer center support grants at nine cancer centers in eight states. It has delayed $55 million for 11 rare disease clinical research network grants in eight states. Let that sink in. This administration is making a conscious choice not to fund research into Alzheimer's disease, cancer and rare diseases. (04:26–04:35)
