We are in a fight for the soul of our country. We are in a fight for who we are going to be as a country.

I had a brief question for Dr. Sharpless about NCI. I just wanted see if he can review for us why the National Cancer Institute needs more funding while we are seeing a decline in grants being awarded at the same time?

Congress has tripled CCAMPIS funding from $15,000,000 to $50,000,000, but we are still serving less than 1 percent of those who could benefit from this program.

One of the issues that is so pressing for American people and especially for American women is the childcare crisis.
