 RESOLUTION

Expressing the sense of the Senate that the operations of the National 
Institutes of Health should not experience any interruption, delay, or 
 funding disruption in violation of the law and that the workforce of 
 the National Institutes of Health is essential to sustaining medical 
 progress.

 Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--

    (1) to protect the health, economic vitality, and national 
 security of the people of the United States, the operations of 
 the National Institutes of Health, including funding research 
 on childhood cancers, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, heart 
 disease, infectious disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and 
 other diseases and conditions, should not be subject to any 
 interruption, delay, or funding disruption in violation of the 
 law; and

    (2) the workforce of the National Institutes of Health, 
 comprised of scientists, researchers, and medical 
 professionals, is essential to sustaining medical progress, and 
 any interference with its work undermines efforts to develop 
 life-saving treatments, weakens the biomedical research 
 enterprise, and threatens the Nation's ability to respond to 
 public health challenges.
