Guest opinion: Medical research saves lives, creates jobs in Montana

The burning question in Washington these days is how to reduce government spending and by how much.

Under current law, funding for cancer research, heart disease, diabetes, and many other medical conditions could be slashed dramatically beginning in January.

Concurrently, Congress is making annual budget decisions for the agencies that fund life-saving research at the University of Montana, Montana State University, Rocky Mountain Labs, McLaughlin Research Institute and a growing number of small businesses across our state.
