ACTION ALERT-CO-SIGN LETTER FOR WOMEN'S HEALTH RESEARCH FUNDING BY APRIL 15! It's evident that #policy decisions affect women's health in all sorts of ways, and one way that is most evident is through funding for women's health research. Lack of such research leaves gaps in medical knowledge and less opportunities to inform innovation that can help improve women's health. In recent months, collective advocacy influenced the launch of significant women's health initiatives, including a proposed $12 billion to improve #womenshealth through research, services and #innovation and a $100 million #healthresearch program, announced by the White House. As #budget discussions for FY2025 progress, your voice is more important than ever. Help advocate for increased #womenshealthresearch funding by co-signing this letter to Congress before April 15. This is not partisan, this is not just for women; improving women' health benefits families, business and our economy. It's a smart #investment. I hope you will take a moment and sign this letter.
