Elizabeth Warren actually said...

"I introduced a Medical Innovation Act that could boost the NIH budget by 20 percent. It is not enough, but it is a start."

"If we are serious about saving lives through research and saving money, then Congress has to step up and make a real commitment of real dollars."

"I am concerned the NIH may not even get that much. Before this bill passed the House, a section requiring the appropriators to continue to fund the NIH at current levels was taken out."

"Families struggling with diabetes, with Parkinson's, with Alzheimer's, other serious conditions, deserve more than lip service from Congress."
