[Pawar, Sangita C - (sangita)]

Sent on behalf of Parker Antin, Associate Dean, Research

Dear Colleague,

Your advocacy efforts have made a difference! Congress is scheduled to vote tomorrow on an omnibus appropriations bill that will provide a $2 billion increase for NIH, $119 million more for NSF, and a $25 million increase for agriculture research in 2016. Please click here<https://www.votervoice.net/FASEB/campaigns/43739/respond> to send an email to your Senators and Representative TODAY to urge them to vote "yes" on HR 2029. It only takes a few minutes and will help ensure that this important bill passes. Please encourage your colleagues throughout the research community to join the effort.

Sincerely,
