Michigan Representative Haley Stevens has introduced new legislation to reverse funding cuts made under Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s leadership. The bill, called the “Stop RFK’s BS Act,” would bring back grants and awards that have been ended since President Trump’s second term began.
The legislation would require that requests made by grant recipients to National Institutes of Health officials be paid within 30 days. It would also extend the budget period of restored grants by one year. Stevens made her position clear in a statement about the cuts affecting research across the country.
