Oregon senators join effort to support NIH funding for Oregon institutions

Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley have joined a bipartisan effort to support increased funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), emphasizing the importance of this funding for Oregon's research institutions. They are advocating for the NIH to receive a budget increase to $50.9 billion for the fiscal year 2025, highlighting the role of NIH-funded research in advancing medical breakthroughs, supporting local economies, and training the next generation of scientists. This push comes in response to the potential flat funding or cuts proposed in the President's budget, which could hinder research progress and economic development in Oregon. The senators argue that sustained and increased investment in NIH is crucial for maintaining the U.S.'s leadership in biomedical research and for the health and economic benefits it brings to states like Oregon.
