Society Urges Congress to Reauthorize the Special Diabetes Program

February 26, 2025

Dear Speaker Johnson, Leader Jeffries, Leader Thune, and Leader Schumer:

"On behalf of the Endocrine Society, the world’s largest professional organization of endocrinologists, I am writing to urge you to reauthorize the Special Diabetes Program at $200 million per-program per-year before the program expires at the end of March. This program plays a crucial role in preventing type 2 diabetes, which is the most expensive chronic disease in the United States. SDP also funds vital research being done on type 1 diabetes."
