Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act
The Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act (; ) is a law that ended taxpayer contributions to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund and authorized a pediatric research initiative through the National Institutes of Health.〔〔 The total funding for research would come to $126 million over 10 years.〔〔 At the time of its passage, national conventions drew about 23% of their funding from the Presidential Election Campaign Fund. It became law during the 113th United States Congress. ==Background== Gabriella Miller was a girl who died of cancer on October 26, 2013 at the age of 10. While she was ill, she worked as an activist to raise support for research into childhood illnesses like cancer. Through her activism, she "raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and helped launch the Smashing Walnuts Foundation to fund pediatric cancer research."〔 In "The Truth 365" documentary, Miller answered a question that what she'd like to tell American leaders about research on pediatric cancer was that there needed to be "less talking, more doing... We need action."〔 House Majority Leader Eric Cantor saw this video and decided to name the bill in her honor.〔
