Each year, Congress crafts spending bills that provide federal funding for medical research, including for sleep disorders. Representative Adam Schiff, a champion for the sleep disorders community, is leading a congressional sign-on letter asking the Appropriations Committee to include recommendations that encourage additional research and public health activities focused on sleep disorders.
