On June 2, the AUA and 120 organizations signed onto a Defense Health Research Consortium (DHRC) letter addressed to leaders of the House and Senate defense appropriations subcommittee urging them to protect funding for the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) and to swiftly pass a Fiscal Year 2023 Appropriations bill. Specifically, the letter supports a five percent plus inflation funding increase for defense health research programs. The letters are attached.
The AUA continues to advocate on behalf of prostate, kidney and bladder cancer funding within CDMRP.
