WASHINGTON, May 22 (Reuters) - The Trump administration is proposing a $6.8 billion budget request for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the 2026 fiscal year, Commissioner of Food and Drugs Martin Makary said on Thursday.
"The Trump administration is proposing a $6.8 billion budget for the FDA, including $3.2 billion in budget authority and 3.6 billion in user fees for fiscal year 2026," Makary told a U.S. Senate panel.
