“Conversations around SNAP benefits are often fraught, dominated by the simplistic refrain that recipients should ‘get a job,’” Elizabeth Austin writes in a guest essay. “My experience illustrates why this response misses the mark.”

I rely on SNAP benefits. That requires constant trade-offs.

My great-grandfather led a team of doctors that invented chemotherapy. He’s part of the legacy of breakthroughs in medical science that saved so many lives. And now we’re going to throw away years of groundbreaking research because we put a manifestly unqualified person in charge of public health.

The NIH’s 2024 budget of just under $37B generated $95B in economic activity in 2024 alone. 99.4% of new pharmaceuticals approved from 2010-2019 came from NIH-funded research. I’m hard pressed to think of anything that generates as much direct economic benefit as our NIH did before they destroyed it
TAPPER: 14 Republicans say you're risking undermining critical research by holding up NIH funding

VOUGHT: If they were a company, their stock price would in shambles. They in some respects caused the pandemic. You have an entire institute that does nothing more than DEI research at the NIH.
