Support Medical Research

Created by Jenny L.

Please speak up on behalf of medical research in Oklahoma and everywhere.

Here is some additional information to include in your call:

OMRF brings $165 million to the Oklahoma economy each year
OMRF employs more than 475 Oklahomans, with most positions falling in highly skilled and high-paying categories
OMRF research has directly resulted in three FDA-approved drugs and two diagnostic tests used across the country, with more in the testing pipeline
More than 98% of all FDA-approved drugs have resulted from NIH-funded research
Consider sharing a personal story about how medical innovation has impacted your life.

Key tips:

All offices require information to verify your constituency. If you leave a voicemail, be sure to include your name, contact information and voting zip code.
A written letter also has a big impact. See below for mailing addresses for Oklahoma representatives.

Suggested phone script

Hi, my name is [NAME]. I live in [Town, City, State]. I’m calling to urge [Lawmaker name] to support the current levels of medical research funding in Fiscal Year 2026 and beyond.

Funding medical research at current levels is critical for a future of longer, healthier lives. We all face the possibility of disease from the day we are born and increasingly as we age. Our best chance of improving quality of life and preventing those diseases is providing scientists with the right resources. Most importantly, medical research builds on itself. Cutting funding today will weaken medical advancements forever.

Please protect our future. Vote against budgets that reduce NIH funding. Thank you.
