Congress states that more research should be undertaken
“It is the sense of Congress that further research should be undertaken to expand the understanding of the causes of, and to find cures for, heritable blood disorders, including sickle cell disease.”
Subsection (b) of section 6505 states the sense of Congress that further research should be undertaken to expand understanding of the causes of, and to find cures for, heritable blood disorders, including sickle cell disease.
What the document actually says
“It is the sense of Congress that further research should be undertaken to expand the understanding of the causes of, and to find cures for, heritable blood disorders, including sickle cell disease.”
That sentence, in plain words
Congress states its view. More research should be done into blood disorders passed down in families. That includes finding cures.
What this is about
A sense of Congress is a stated view. It is not a rule. Nobody has to do anything because of it.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
