FY2020 House Appropriations Sign-On Letter Success!
In March 2019, SRBR worked with Project Sleep, the Sleep Research Society and the Health and Medicine Council of Washington, to advocate for federal support of sleep and circadian research, and sleep awareness from the House of Representatives. We were hugely successful! Thirty one members of the U.S. House of Representatives signed a letter expressing their support for sleep and circadian research from the Department of Defense, NIH, and the CDC. Read the letter and more about our advocacy efforts here. Thank you to all of the U.S. Representatives that supported this letter! |
