What you can say:Hello Senator/Representative [Name],
I urge you to oppose the NIH’s recent indirect cost reductions, which threaten Alabama’s economy and research institutions. These cuts, imposed via executive order rather than through proper legislative channels, undermine the vital funding that supports jobs, innovation, and medical advancements in our state.
Alabama’s research universities and healthcare institutions rely on these funds to drive economic growth, create high-paying jobs, and maintain our state’s leadership in biomedical research. A unilateral executive action bypassing congressional authority sets a dangerous precedent and jeopardizes critical funding streams.
Please stand with Alabama’s researches, businesses, and patients by challenging this unlawful overreach. Our state’s economy and future depend on it.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
