Researchers across the state are organizing in support of Gov. Healey's DRIVE Act. Recently, the Committee on Economic Development & Emerging Technology has put forth a redraft of the bill that cuts the funding from $400 mil to $200 mil and excludes private institutions from accessing state-level funding. These cuts reflect a deep misunderstanding of how federal cuts have impacted researchers in MA. World class research requires consistent, stable investment, and the state of Massachusetts must act quickly to restore reliable funding to the research that undergirds our state’s economy.
Sign up to join us on Thursday, April 9, at 3pm for a phonebank to call our state legislators and let them know that our labs urgently need funding to continue producing life-saving research!
