The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) oversees Medicaid, a program that serves as the nation’s most crucial safety net for healthcare. But why does this matter to you?

Not just the National Institutes of Health, now the National Science Foundation is put on pause. Reminder: research is a multi-step process. Pausing the peer review panels by itself creates months of delay.
