Senate funds kids cancer research after it’s nixed from CR

AL WEAVER

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/thehill.com/homenews/house/5049988-house-republicans-government-shutdown/amp/

The Senate late on Friday night unanimously passed $190 million in funding for pediatric cancer research after it was stripped from the initial stopgap spending package.

As Senate leaders were trying to strike a time agreement for the continuing resolution, the upper chamber separately passed the legislation — the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act 2.0 — via voice vote.

Democrats were angry that it had been removed from the bipartisan package initially. It passed the House in March.
