STAT+: Will House delay Trump plan to politicize NIH grants?

The article discusses the U.S. House of Representatives' potential vote on a stopgap funding bill that would block President Trump's proposal to allow political appointees to oversee federal research grants administered by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The House plans to use a fast-track process requiring two-thirds approval, indicating confidence from Republican leaders that the bill will pass. If the vote fails, negotiations with the Senate would be delayed until September 14. Additionally, the article mentions upcoming meetings of Congressional Medicare advisers focused on analyzing changes to Medicare Part D benefits and evaluating clinician performance metrics.
