Taking action by sending messages to your Congressional delegation makes a difference, and our online campaigns make it easy to do. Don't take it from us, hear from Rosa DeLauro, Ranking Member of the House Appropriations Committee, why your voice matters.
Since January, there have been multiple actions to cut federal funding of research including an attempt to freeze all grants and an announcement that would limit indirect costs for NIH grants to 15%. These efforts would cause major harm to institution budgets, jeopardize lifesaving medical research, cause layoffs, suspend clinical trials, and disrupt ongoing research and laboratory support programs. While federal judges have blocked these actions at least temporarily, we are concerned there will be further efforts to cut federal funding of research. Endocrine Society members are encouraged to join our campaign to share with your US Representative and Senators how cutting federal funding for your research would impact your work.
