Coalition to Protect Research - Occasionally, certain members of Congress attempt to de-fund federal grants  simply because they do not like, or understand, the scientific value of those grants. This is a dangerous pattern as the peer review process is the established, and highly effective, means of assessing scientific value in research. The Coalition works to protect researchers and the peer-review process from such interference.
