ASAHP joined over 100 organizations in sending a letter to key Congressional appropriations as part of the Friends of HRSA coalition. The coalition letter requests $8.8 billion for discretionary HRSA programs in the FY 2021 Labor-HHS-ED-Related agencies appropriations bill. The coalition urged the appropriators to reject the $742 million in cuts that were proposed to HRSA’s discretionary budget in the President’s FY 2021 budget proposal, which was released earlier this month.
