  • April 26, 2021 the Honorable Rosa Delauro Chairwoman U.S. House
    April 26, 2021 The Honorable Rosa DeLauro The Honorable Tom Cole Chairwoman Ranking Member U.S. House Subcommittee on Labor, Health U.S. House Appropriations Subcommittee and Human Services, Education and Related on Labor, Health and Human Services, Agencies Education and Related Agencies 2358-B Rayburn House Office Building 1016 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC Washington, DC 20515 Chairwoman DeLauro and Ranking Member Cole, As you develop the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill, we are writing to respectfully request that you provide robust funding for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG). Recognizing the need to direct taxpayer resources to programs that can demonstrate a return on federal investments, quality child care - which has a strong evidence base - plays a crucial role in supporting children's healthy development, learning, and school readiness, while also enabling parents to work, train, or pursue an education. In this way, CCDBG not only improves future opportunities for children, but also invests in parents by supporting their ability to work and be successful. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, families at every income level struggled to find and afford high-quality care, and less than twenty percent of eligible children received support through the CCDBG subsidy program. These challenges have only been exacerbated over the last year, and now, more than ever, access to affordable high-quality child care remains a barrier for many parents who wish to enter and remain in the workforce. Given the importance of this program to working families across the country and the fundamental role of child care in our economic recovery, there is a critical need for robust CCDBG funding.

    WEDNESDAY, JULY 21, 2021 7:00PM ET VIP Reception | 7:30PM ET Program | Virtual The Global Down Syndrome Foundation (GLOBAL) is the largest non-profit in the U.S. working to save lives and dramatically improve health outcomes for people with Down syndrome. GLOBAL directly supports over 200 scientists and 2,000 patients with Down syndrome. Working closely with Congress and the National Institutes of Health, GLOBAL is the lead advocacy organization in the U.S. for Down syndrome research and medical care. Given that people with Down syndrome are at extremely high risk for COVID-19 (adults with Down syndrome are four times more likely to be hospitalized and 10 times more likely to develop adverse side effects due to COVID-19) we have decided to hold our 2021 AcceptAbility Gala virtually. GLOBAL’s annual AcceptAbility Gala brings together policymakers from both sides of the aisle, key scientists from NIH, and our Down syndrome community. YOUR support for this inspiring event allows GLOBAL to protect people with Down syndrome from COVID-19; provide world-class care to over 2,000 patients with Down syndrome from 28 states and 10 countries; and fund over 200 scientists working on Down syndrome research with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, and autoimmune disorders. With support from you and our champions, GLOBAL’s advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill has resulted in a tripling of the NIH Down syndrome research budget, as well as outreach to over 14,000 families. 2021 HONOREES, COMMITTEES & SPECIAL GUESTS Ambassador: Caroline Cardenas Quincy

I would like to thank my thesis advisor Dr. Simien and Honors Program advisor Dr. Hettinger for their tireless work in assisting me with the preparation of this thesis. I could not have done it without them. I would like to thank my family, including my Parents, Step-Parents, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents for their support through four years of College.

    February 1, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Charles Schumer Speaker of the House Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate The Honorable Kevin McCarthy The Honorable Mitch McConnell Minority Leader Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate Dear Speaker Pelosi, Leader Schumer, Leader McCarthy, and Leader McConnell: On behalf of the more than 30,000 members of the American Public Works Association (APWA), we are reaching out to urge you to support financial relief for state and local governments in the next COVID-19 relief package. This aid should be passed quickly, and with no eligibility requirements based on minimum population that have excluded smaller local governments from previous relief packages. Without this assistance layoffs and furloughs at public works departments across the country will impair their ability to deliver vital services to their communities, and potentially worsen our nation’s economic crisis. APWA has 63 active chapters throughout North America and is the only association to collectively serve and represent all areas of public works responsibilities. Our members work in both the public and private sectors, providing expertise at the local, state, and federal levels. Working in the public interest, public works professionals are responsible for planning, designing, building, operating, and maintaining all facets of America’s vast infrastructure network so fundamental to our nation’s economy, environment, public health, and safety. Many of these essential workers have continued to work on the frontlines, placing themselves at increased risk of exposure to the coronavirus and continuing to serve their communities. State and local governments are facing historic budget shortfalls as the coronavirus pandemic continues.

Democrats retained their majority status in the House, with a reduced margin of 219 Democrats and 211 Republicans.1 Democrats also won control of the Senate, with Vice President Kamala Harris breaking the tie between an equally divided chamber of 50 Democrats2 and 50 Republicans. This 50/50 split of the Senate has only happened three other times in history, leading to weeks of discussions between Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who brokered a power-sharing deal. With a deal in place, Senate leaders joined the House in appointing committee and subcommittee chairs and completing committee assignments, which are detailed below. Changes are marked in red. Congressional Leadership Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was re-elected as the Speaker of the House, marking her third session in this role. Sen.

    April 28, 2021 The Honorable Rosa DeLauro Chair House Committee on Appropriations U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Kay Granger Ranking Member House Committee on Appropriations U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Tom Cole Ranking Member Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Dear Chair DeLauro, Ranking Member Granger and Ranking Member Cole: We, the undersigned organizations, respectfully request that you provide $60 million for the Advanced Molecular Detection (AMD) program at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies bill. The AMD program uses next generation sequencing (NGS) to bring the concept of precision medicine to bear for “precision public health.” AMD gives us new tools to detect disease faster, identify outbreaks sooner, and protect people from emerging and evolving disease threats. It informs vaccine development, helps identify and track antimicrobial resistance and foodborne illness, and informs the development of diagnostics for new, existing, and emerging diseases. AMD has played a critical role in the response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, enabling the United States to sequence SARS-CoV-2 within one week of its detection last year. In late spring of 2020, the CDC launched SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing for Public Health Emergency Response, Epidemiology and Surveillance (SPHERES), a national genomics consortium to coordinate sequencing across the U.S among public and private entities. Now, as SARS-CoV-2 variants threaten our progress against the virus, supplemental emergency funding through the American Rescue Plan is boosting AMD capacity and making it possible to stay ahead of the new variants and make data-driven public health decisions.
