ASPPH strongly opposes the proposed cuts and structural changes to public health agencies in the House FY 2025 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education (Labor-HHS-ED) appropriations bill that were announced last week. The drastic reductions to key public health programs are unacceptable and threaten to weaken our nation's health system amidst ongoing health crises.
ASPPH's key points of concerninclude:
ASPPH calls on Congressto restore funding and support a stronger public health infrastructure. We remain committed to advocating for a robust and equitable health system that can effectively respond to future challenges.
