American Cures Act This bill permanently funds several federal agencies and programs that perform biomedical research. The bill provides specified funding for • the National Institutes of Health, • the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, • the Department of Defense health program, and • the Department of Veterans Affairs medical and prosthetics research program. The bill exempts the funding from sequestration, which is a process of automatic, usually across-the-board spending reductions under which budgetary resources are permanently cancelled to enforce specific budget policy goals. It also exempts the budgetary effects of the funding from the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) Act of 2010 and the Senate PAYGO rule.
