Coalition Urges Congress to Reject Proposed HHS Cuts

The ADA signed on to a coalition letter expressing concern for the Trump administration’s draft fiscal year 2026 budget for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The letter follows a draft budget proposal outlined by the Office of Management and Budget that recommends cutting the agency's overall discretionary funding by approximately 30%. This would negatively impact the nation’s research, scientific, and public health infrastructure, according to the coalition, which includes 534 organizations, including the ADA.
