Trump signs executive order creating NIH Women's Health Division and task force
President Trump signed an executive order in October establishing a presidential task force on women's health and directing the NIH to create a Women's Health Division within an existing institute. The move echoes earlier efforts, including the 1993 NIH Revitalization Act under Clinton and a 2023 Biden initiative that sought $12 billion in congressional funding for women's health research but was not ultimately appropriated.
