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 such funding has played in supporting significant research initiatives in areas like 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, which could hinder progress in scientific research and diminish educational opportunities, ultimately affecting economic and social stability both domestically and internationally.

The resolution urges Congress to restore USAID funding to ensure that ongoing and future research projects can continue, thereby maintaining the United States' leadership in global research and development efforts. It concludes by stating that copies of the resolution will be sent to key government officials, including the President and members of the Michigan congressional delegation, to advocate for the reinstatement of this vital funding.
