New York has the chance to replicate Texas's successful, voter-backed biomedical research institutes. Like Texas, we can leverage our world-class research institutions to tackle major diseases, create jobs, and deliver a massive return on investment for the public good.

Science saves lives, creates jobs, and strengthens New York’s economy. We’re fighting for the state to invest in the science that serves the public good. @amsnyc.bsky.social @nycures.bsky.social @uawregion9a.bsky.social @governor.ny.gov
