Sen. Ossoff's office said he is cosponsoring the NIH IMPROVE Act, described it as introduced by Sens. Katie Britt and Cory Booker, and said it would authorize $73.4 million annually for seven years for the NIH IMPROVE initiative.
Assessments
Britt directly fulfilled the support commitment during her current Senate term by introducing S. 3254, the NIH IMPROVE Act, with Sen. Booker. The bill text matches the promised authorization amount of $73.4 million annually for the NIH IMPROVE Initiative, and later Senate evidence shows continued bipartisan support. Because the promise was framed as supporting the Act rather than securing enactment, direct sponsorship counts as delivery.
