GREAT NEWS: The Congenital Heart Futures Reauthorization Act of 2024 passed unanimously in a late-night vote in the U.S. Senate. Thank you to our champions @SenatorDurbin, @SenToddYoung, and @RepGusBilirakis (speaking here in this video about the bill) for making the dream of $50 million in funding for #CHD research over 5 years a reality. Next up: the president’s desk. #CHDAdvocacy #CHDAwareness

My Congenital Heart Futures Reauthorization Act passed the House last night. We’ve seen that this program yields positive results, and I urge my Senate colleagues to join us as we work to help future generations live longer, healthier lives.

We demand better research, surveillance, and awareness of adult congenital heart defects. The Congenital Heart Futures Reauthorization Act of 2024 (H.R. 7189/S. 3757) will continue federal funding of up to $10 million through 2029 and identify ways to address the shortage of #ACHD professionals.

Contact your elected officials before Thursday’s Senate hearing and tell them why we urgently need funding for #CHD programs: https://t.co/Tw8CyuGjq1
