The resolution, introduced by several representatives, calls on the United States Congress to reinstate funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to research universities. It highlights the critical role that USAID funding has played in supporting research initiatives in areas such as agriculture, public health, and global development, particularly emphasizing the contributions of institutions like Michigan State University. The resolution argues that the recent freeze on USAID funding has disrupted essential research programs, including those aimed at enhancing global food security, and threatens to undermine scientific progress, educational opportunities, and international collaborations.

By urging Congress to restore this funding, the resolution aims to ensure that ongoing and future research projects can continue, thereby maintaining the United States' leadership in global research and development efforts. The resolution concludes with a directive to transmit copies to key government officials, including the President and members of Congress, to advocate for the reinstatement of USAID funding to research universities.
