AGA fights against proposed changes to federal grantmaking policies

AGA partnered with partners in the scientific community to oppose the changes, including this letter to the Chairs and Ranking Members of the Committee on Appropriations, and this letter to OMB Director Russell Vought along with 300 other organizations.

Additionally, GI and Hepatology News published an article outlining the far-reaching impacts of the rule on clinicians.

We are sounding the alarm on social media to spur action. AGA leaders such as former Governing Board member Kim Barrett, Ph.D, shared this message on Instagram.
