House Subcommittee Provides Increase in NIH, CDC Funding
The House Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Subcommittee released text of its draft FY 2023 spending bill prior to the bill’s markup. Key features of the bill include:
- NIH - $47.5 billion, an increase of $2.5 billion over FY22
- CDC - $10.5 billion, an increase of $2 billion over FY 2022
- ARPA-H – $2.5 billion, an increase of $1.75 billion over FY22 funding.
- Grant Extension – the bill gives NIH the authority to extend multiyear grants obligated through FY 2017 to be extended for availability through FY 2023 if the NIH director “determines the project suffered an interruption of activities attributable to SARS-CoV-2
- The Subcommittee action is the first step in the long Congressional process of providing funding for NIH and the rest of the Public Health Service.
