The 2026 Midterms & the Road Ahead for Injury and Violence Prevention

Thursday, November 12, 12 pm ET

The midterm election results will reshape Congress, creating new opportunities to protect and grow federal investments in injury and violence prevention. Those opportunities, coupled with the expectation for the administration to once again propose eliminating the CDC's Injury Center in its FY2028 budget, mean our coalition's work is far from over.

Join the Keep America Safe Coalition for a post-election briefing with Safe States Alliance Executive Director Sharon Gilmartin and head of Government Relations Paul Bonta. They'll break down the election results, discuss what the new Congress will mean for the CDC and the Injury Center, and explore how you can help protect critical injury and violence prevention programs in the months ahead.

We’ll cover:

  • The winners and losers in the midterms

  • What the political landscape looks like moving ahead

  • Where does injury and violence prevention fit into the 2027 and 2028 priorities

  • Current state of play at CDC and within the CDC Injury Center

We'll leave plenty of time for your questions.
