🚨 RECORD-BREAKING investment in America's next generation of scientists! Under @POTUS, @NIHDirector_Jay, and @SecKennedy's leadership, @NIH awarded research grants to 1,648 early-career investigators in FY2026 — the most in NIH history! We're investing in American talent, strengthening gold-standard science, and accelerating discoveries that will improve and save lives.

Today, we’re announcing a deferral of $1.2 BILLION MORE dollars from California. Personal care services in CA have grown 24% in just three years — twice the average rate of other states. When the numbers don’t add up, we don’t look the other way. The American taxpayer deserves answers.

1 day left to comment! HHS is seeking public input on the potential health effects of radiofrequency and electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure from cell phones, Wi-Fi, and other wireless technologies. Help us identify research gaps and better understand how these technologies may affect our health, especially the health of our children. Submit comments by October 21: federalregister.gov/document…

This week, @HRSAgov Administrator Engels and @wvgovernor Morrisey teamed up for the launch of HHS's Newborn Essentials Support Toolkits (NEST) Program which offers supplies for moms and babies and trusted guidance on postpartum health and infant care. Learn more ⬇️ hrsa.gov/grants/find-funding…

It was a pleasure to join @CDCgov Director @DrSchwartzCDC as we work together to advance President Trump’s vision for improving the health and well-being of every American. Women deserve better health at every stage of life, and we are focused on ensuring they have the tools, information, and support to thrive in the greatest nation on earth!

ACF launched A Home for Every Child nearly a year ago with a simple mission: improve the ratio of foster homes to children in need of care. Now that all 50 states have joined the initiative, there is nationwide commitment to ensure we have homes waiting on kids, instead of kids waiting on homes. A new HHS report examines the current five states with the best ratios of foster homes to children and identifies strategies that have led to their success: 1. Recruiting foster parents 2. Updating foster home licensure and approval 3. Supporting and retaining foster parents 4. Preventing entry into foster care 5. Promoting permanency and placement stability ACF encourages all states and stakeholders to learn from the range of approaches that have helped Idaho, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, and Vermont strengthen foster care capacity and move towards A Home for Every Child.

Thank you, @FLOTUS, for your leadership in advancing women’s health. Women deserve clear answers about conditions that uniquely or disproportionately affect them. Today, we are changing how our government pursues those answers. The new Women’s Health Division at @NIH will tackle these questions with gold-standard science, accelerate research, and turn discoveries into better prevention, treatments, and care for women across America.

Today, @POTUS, joined by @FLOTUS, signed an executive order directing HHS to establish a new Women’s Health Division at @NIH to strengthen research, accelerate medical breakthroughs, and improve health outcomes for women and girls. The order also establishes a White House Women’s Health Task Force, co-chaired by @SecKennedy and @SusieWiles47, to coordinate federal efforts to advance women’s health at every stage of life—from childhood and adolescence to reproductive health, menopause, and healthy aging.

🚨 HISTORIC NEWS! @POTUS is directing @HHSGov under the leadership of @SecKennedy to establish a new Women's Health Division within @NIH led by @NIHDirector_Jay.

“Our mission must serve women at every stage of life.” —@FLOTUS As co-chairs of the White House Women’s Health Task Force, @SecKennedy, and @SusieWiles47 will revolutionize the way we tackle women’s health and improve outcomes for women of all ages and stages of life.

As Assistant Secretary for Health, with oversight of the Office on Women’s Health, I am honored to join President Trump and some of our nation’s leading minds in women’s health for today’s signing of the Executive Order, “Advancing Women’s Health to Improve Outcomes in All Phases of Life.” I remain committed to reducing chronic illness, advancing innovation, and improving health for every American woman.

NIH had a strong FY2026: ✅ $35.2 billion in extramural funding ✅ 15% increase in funding for competing awards ✅ Record-breaking 1,648 R01-equivalent grants supporting early-stage investigators Yet some have fixated on a single number: fewer grant awards. But the grant count measures transactions, not scientific investment, much less scientific progress. The questions that matter are whether the best science is funded, whether the next generation is able to test their ideas, and whether taxpayer dollars are being soundly invested to help Americans live longer, healthier lives. On those measures, FY2026 was a strong year.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be footing the bill for duplicate insurance coverage that benefits insurers, not patients. We’re cracking down on unnecessary payments to protect taxpayer dollars and preserve the healthcare programs Americans depend on. @SecKennedy / @WHFraudTF

America should lead the world in turning medical breakthroughs into treatments for patients. HHS is cutting the delays, duplication, and unnecessary costs that hold clinical trials back. Through @ARPA_H, we are building a modern clinical trial system that generates rigorous evidence faster, reduces the burden on patients, and moves effective treatments from discovery to patients sooner.
