Medical research for troops would get over $1.1 billion in restored funding
This bill, called the "Medical Research for Our Troops Act," would restore over $1.1 billion in funding for military medical research. This money would go to the Defense Health Agency for research, development, testing, and evaluation, including specific Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs. The changes would take effect as if they were part of a law passed earlier this year.
Today, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, sets aside $40,395,072,000 for Defense Health Agency research, development, test, and evaluation. After this bill, that amount would increase to $41,576,684,000. The bill would also remove the 23rd comma and all text that follows through the period at the end from the 2025 Act. It would also direct that funds for Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs be used in line with the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024.
