Champion Faster Medical Progress in FY26
The clock is ticking on the ability of the US Congress and the Trump Administration to prevent a government shutdown. If they don’t reach an agreement by September 30, a short-term continuing resolution (CR) is needed to extend current funding and give Congress more time to finish the Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations process. A shutdown would cause severe disruptions for research and public health. Use our editable email to urge your members of Congress to support a short-term CR and prevent a shutdown.
Note: Members of Congress require your contact information to verify that you are a constituent and respond to you directly.
