Mary helen Davila, and Bob Dolezal, Any idea? Is it because he is following a Republican position that disagrees with spending on other issues? Barbara and Nita, Mette at PAN told me today that there is NO allocation for PD in the Senate bill. What we have is a colloquy - a separate comment - from Sens. Wellstone, Specter and , I think, Cochrane, asking for $75 million PARKINSON's-SPECIFIC, money, over and above whatever would be spent under the Senate Appropriations bill ,as part of the money that increases the budget of the NIH as a whole.
