Pancreatic cancer research is seeing huge cuts thanks to Trump and Republican stewardship.

WASHINGTON, DC -- Congressman Jared Moskowitz (D-FL-23) is raising the alarm about the security of the Department of Defense's Pancreatic Cancer Research Program, following massive cuts to it under the Pentagon's Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP). His letter to CDMRP Director Col. Mark Hartell presses officials for answers on the rationale for completely eliminating funds to this program and urges reconsideration to ensure that pancreatic cancer research remains a top priority.
