Udall Parkinson's Research and Education Act. Having reviewed the materials you provided, he is convinced these additional funds are important and will truly make a difference. His name will be added to the list of sponsors in September when the Congress comes back from recess. Ms. Schark, your efforts were crucial in demonstrating the current inequity in research dollars at NIH. Congressman Talent appreciates your bringing this to his attention and looks forward to working for enactment of this important legislation. I also enjoyed meeting with you and look forward to working with you on this issue in the future. Please feel free to e-mail or call me in Washington at 202-225-2561 if you have any questions or comments. If there is anything we can do for you in the future, please don't hesitate to contract us. Best regards, Andy Barr Legislative Assistant Congressman James M. Talent
