Center for war-related brain injury faces budget cut
Congress appears ready to slash funding for the research and treatment of brain injurries caused by bomb blast ,an injury that military scientist decribe as a signature wound of the Iraq war.
House and Senate versions of the 2007 Defence appropriation bill contains 7$ million for the Defence and Veterans Brain Injury Center-- half of what the center received last fiscal year.
Proponents of increased funding say they are shocked to see cuts in treatment of bomb blast injuries in the midst of a war.
Again to me this show that the cut an ran Replugs care less about the men and women they send into battle. We need a New Direction.
