Seems to apply pretty well to #mapoli too, though. We have money in reserve. A (maybe *the*) core safety net program is at risk. Use the money!

A new gene therapy trial slowed Huntingtonβs Disease by an average of 75% in patients.
It involves delivery of a modified but safe virus that produces microRNA in the brain to counteract mutations in the huntingtin gene.
We can achieve amazing things when we fund science!
