Take Action on FY 2026 Appropriations

The President’s fiscal year (FY) 2026 Budget Request proposes significant reductions in health funding and research, including the elimination and consolidation of some critical programs and activities. Specifically, the administration is proposing a 40 percent cut to the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), a reorganization of the NIH’s 27 institutes and centers (ICs), and the relocation of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion programs.  

The House is continuing to advance its appropriations bills; however, the Labor-HHS subcommittee markup is not expected to take place until after lawmakers return from August recess. The Senate will begin its work later this summer. Therefore, now is a critical time to reach out to your legislators to advocate for funding for gynecologic cancer research and care.  

SGO needs your help! Please take action now by sending a message to your Members of
Congress urging them to support full and robust appropriations for gynecologic cancer research and care programs in FY 2026. This includes rejecting the administration’s proposed FY 2026 funding levels and preventing the reorganization of HHS agencies until Congressional and stakeholder feedback is considered.
