Is There a Way to Get Congress to Take This More Seriously?

I think a lot of people are surprised to realize that we have a us. Public health service and we don't really have anybody to run it. The nominal head is the surgeon general, but he doesn't have a lot of line authority. And another recommendation of our commission report was that congress really does need to adequately fund public health across the country. But it has to do it in a way that isn't year by year. You can't every year be in this period of uncertainty that it all may fall off the cliff. So we have to think about mechanisms to really have ongoing funding and commitments.
