Hadassah National President Rhoda Smolow's July 15, 2020 op-ed "Congress Should Enhance Bilateral Medical Partnerships with Israel" for Morning Consult applauds the tremendous support which the EMPIL-DOC Act has received from both the House and Senate. The bill authorizes an appropriation of $12 million for the development of artificial intelligence, drugs and vaccinations, respiratory assist devices, diagnostic tests and telemedicine to combat COVID-19. Rhoda emphasizes that passing this legislation can help deliver results and the possibilities are endless, but only if Washington recognizes the opportunities.
