Oral Health Caucus
The Congressional Oral Health Caucus is a bipartisan body of U.S. representatives dedicated to making oral health a priority in Washington. Chaired by U.S. Reps. Mike Simpson (R-ID) and Elijah Cummings (D-MD), the Oral Health Caucus provides a forum for education, discussion and an exchange of ideas on oral health care and research through Caucus-sponsored briefings, legislative seminars, and educational programs. Also, Caucus members are strong supporters of funding for dental and craniofacial research performed at the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
