If we don't stop NIH from going down the road it's on, I am deeply concerned it will wreak irreparable harm on biomedical research in this country and millions of American families counting on it. To date, NIH has taken the completely unprecedented step of terminating 2,370 active grants and $4.9 billion in funding. It has significantly delayed the awarding of new grants and continuation grants. It has prevented research institutions from accessing their existing grant funds. Biomedical research can't just be turned on and off on a whim. (02:44–02:56)
