Roy Blunt: “While that was $1 billion less than we had the year before, we were able to eliminate programs and prioritize programs.”

I think that many of the things that this Committee has done, that you and Senator Klobuchar have done personally, and that Congress has done for the United States Capitol Police has sent a pretty strong message that people do care about…

Senator Blunt's longstanding promise of expanding the reach and resources of the Nation's Registry has saved thousands of lives.

I think you have completed about 75 percent of those.

Please continue this commitment and provide timely investments public health and research programs at the CDC and in the NIH.
