Mrs. Linda Garcia
82 River Ranch Road
Laramie, Wyoming 82070
Good morning Linda . . .
and thanks for sharing your thoughts about the need for increased
endometriosis research. It is good to hear from you, and I apologize for
the delay in my response.
You will be interested to know that the Senate Appropriations Committee
recently approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2003 appropriations bill which
allocated $27.2 billion for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) --
the
primary research arm of the federal government. This increase of $3.7
billion over FY 2002 appropriations marks the completion of the
Congressional promise to double funding for the NIH in f! ive years. As
for
endometriosis research specifically, the National Institute of Child
Health and Human Development (NICHD), the division of NIH in charge of
endometriosis research, received an appropriation of almost $1.2 billion.
This funding increase will go a long way in helping scientists find a
cure
for this disease. While the full Senate has yet to debate the FY 2003
Labor-HHS Appropriations bill, know that I will remember your comments as
funding for the NIH is evaluated.
Far too many families face the difficulties associated with this dreaded
illness. Throughout my time in Congress I have consistently advocated
increasing research funding and will continue to do so.
Thanks again for taking the time to contact me. I appreciate knowing your
views, Linda.
Best Regards,
Craig Thomas
United States Senator
