Republican Weekly Address

George Wenschhof



Rep. Gregg Harper (R-Miss.) delivered the weekly GOP address calling for support of the Gabriela Miller Kids First Research Act, which passed the House on a 295-103 vote in December.

The bill, part of Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s “Making Life Work” agenda, would shift $126 million from the party nominating conventions to the National Institutes of Health.

“Instead of funding these conventions once every four years, we’ll make it a daily priority to explore the full potential of clinical trials and advancements,” Harper said in the video address. “Not only for childhood cancer, but for all pediatric conditions – even the most rare genetic diseases.”
