WASHINGTON, DC - The 21st Century Cures Act continues to enjoy growing support from individuals and groups all across the country.
Seventy-five research, life sciences, and patient advocacy organizations recently joined the wave of support voicing their approval of the legislation in a letter. “The scientific breakthroughs that take place across this nation with funding from NIH have raised life expectancy and improved the quality of life for countless Americans. … The blueprint for funding included in this bill has the potential to provide NIH with the resources needed to improve how we prevent and treat many of society’s most vexing diseases, including the thousands for which we currently do not have effective treatments."
Last week, sixty-five cancer centers shared their praise for the landmark legislation. The number has recently been updated to sixty-seven cancer institutes, and the long list of supporters continues to grow.
