PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

The third quarter of 2023 was nothing short of packed with opportunities for members throughout Pennsylvania to come together. From connecting in the lounge at PNC Park in Pittsburgh to touring the Jefferson Institute of Bioprocessing in Fort Washington, networking in the sky at the Pyramid Club in Philadelphia to an Open House at the LSPA Headquarters, we came to a city-near-you to provide unparalleled connections.

 

This quarter of new connections reached its peak at the annual Life Sciences Future meeting, where more than 600 attendees joined us from across the Commonwealth for two days of partnering, presentations, panel discussions and networking. As the life sciences industry continues to battle economic headwinds, these opportunities to meet with investors and forge new relationships become ever more important. As we look to the fourth quarter, the Association continues to find ways to create these key strategic connections for our membership.

All the best,

Chris Molineaux

Welcome to the 2023 Q3 Newsletter. Life Sciences Pennsylvania has been working tirelessly to advocate on your behalf and provide opportunities for you to connect within the life sciences industry. We hope this recap of the past quarter provides you the optimism we hold each day for the Association and the industry.

ADVOCACY ABSTRACT
July 20, 2023 | Hosted Virtually

Thanks to Washington, DC based partners, Kimbell & Associates and Winning Strategies Washington, we provided comprehensive and efficient federal policy and advocacy information to our members July 20. Our timely discussion happened just as the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act (PAHPA) Reauthorization was moving through the legislative process in the House and Senate. During the virtual meeting, the implications of the debt limit deal on health spending in FY24 and beyond as well as Emerging health policy changes advancing through Congress and in the Biden Administration.

Advocacy Abstract.png
LABOR AND LIFE SCIENCES
September 21, 2023 | Steamfitters Local 420
labor and ls.png

Life Sciences PA was proud to partner with Steamfitters Local 420 September 21 in Northeast Philadelphia to showcase the important relationship between skilled labor and Pennsylvania’s and Philadelphia's life sciences community. The event consisted of a tour of the Steamfitters training facility and a short speaking program.

 

Much of the infrastructure critical to Pennsylvania and Philadelphia’s life sciences leadership was built by the dedicated, skilled, and hardworking members of Pennsylvania’s building trades. Laboratories, Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) facilities, and many other sophisticated life sciences spaces require careful design and construction. The Steamfitters Local 420 and many other members of the Commonwealth’s building trades community have the members and skilled workforce required for these projects. 

 

This event provided public officials information on the important partnership between labor and the life sciences community and first-hand examples on how apprentices and journey workers are being trained to facilitate the expansion of Pennsylvania's and the region’s, innovation economy.

Federal Update Strup-02.png
Federal Government Shutdown Update

The U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate were able to come together by September 30th and pass a 45-day government funding and disaster aid package averting a government shutdown. Had a government shutdown occurred, the FDA would not have been able to accept new applications that are subject to user fees. Thankfully, the FDA does not have to make changes to its normal operating procedures for the time being. Though some decisions are at the discretion of the Biden Administration, in previous government shutdowns grants management activities at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) were halted; however, current grant recipients were able to draw down their funds. Given the passage of the stop-gap federal budget, we also expect NIH grant activities to continue as scheduled. The new deadline is November 17, 2023.

World AMR Congress

Members of Life Sciences PA attended two days of panel discussions and plenary sessions at the Pennsylvania convention center in Philadelphia devoted to the worldwide public health crisis of Antimicrobial Resistance. AMR is complex with many issues ranging from misinformation and disinformation, including evolving science. Pennsylvania was honored to welcome scientists and world leaders to share their research findings as well as lend their support for American legislative leadership with the PASTEUR Act.

Following the World AMR Congress, Life Sciences PA joined patient advocates and scientists, meeting with members of the Pennsylvania Congressional Delegation in Washington, DC to stress the urgency and importance of the PASTEUR Act. This legislation, introduced in April, provides a novel funding approach for AMR research and solutions in the lab, on the farm, in hospitals and communities.  

For additional updates on Federal legislation, please contact our Senior Director, Federal Policy & Public Affairs, Lara Flynn at lflynn@lifesciencespa.org

Rally for Medical Research

Life Sciences PA was proud to participate in the annual Rally for Medical Research in Washington, DC. Each September, a broad coalition of groups representing Academic Research Institutions, Patient Advocates, Industry, and more come together to urge Members of the US House of Representatives and US Senate for increased investment in the National Institutes of Health (NIH).  This year, more than 240 participants from 33 states and Washington, DC met with more than 200 congressional offices. The Pennsylvania delegation had the opportunity to meet with the offices of both Senators Casey and Fetterman as well as members of Congress from across the Commonwealth. Thank you to the American Association for Cancer Research, which leads this annual effort to support the NIH and basic, foundational biomedical research.

INNOVATE BIO Workforce Development

This summer, Life Sciences PA joined the INNOVATEBIO Pennsylvania Task Force: which included the West Philadelphia Skills Initiative, Montgomery County Community College, Center for Breakthrough Medicines, and the Wistar Institute to create skill standards and curriculum for cell and gene therapy technicians. As a recipient of the competitive Economic Development Administration (EDA) Good Jobs Challenge in 2022, the task force was focused on diversifying the positions of lab technicians.

Introduction of the ORPHAN Cures Act

Congress returned from August recess with a renewed focus on reversals and fixes to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). We are happy to share that Representatives John Joyce, M.D. (R-PA) and Wiley Nickel (D-NC) have introduced the Optimizing Research Progress Hope And New Cures (ORPHAN Cures Act). This bipartisan legislation is the first to specifically address the incentive structure within the IRA to encourage investment into orphan drug development. Reversing the IRA’s perverse incentives will ensure investment in medical research will specifically bring scientific innovation to patients with rare diseases and unmet medical needs. You can read more about the legislation HERE. We will continue to advocate on behalf of our membership to the Pennsylvania Congressional Delegation to move Congressman Joyce’s ORPHAN Cures Act bipartisan legislation forward and continue to educate on the complicated nature of prescription drug pricing and how sweeping policy changes can inhibit innovation for life-saving medicines – especially for patients and organizations focused on rare disorders.

State Updates Strip-01.png
Pennsylvania Budget Update

Governor Shapiro signed the General Appropriations Act August 3. This legislation serves as a spending plan for the commonwealth. The Pennsylvania Senate initially passed the bill Friday, June 30 and the Pennsylvania House passed the bill July 5. 

The final overarching agreement includes approximately $45.5 billion in General Fund expenditures. This represents an increase of approximately $2.5 billion over last year’s General Fund expenditures. 

 

The Senate returned to Harrisburg August 30 to pass two fiscal code bills. The fiscal code enables and instructs the allocation of funds. However, the two fiscal code bills that fund state-related universities and other non-preferred appropriations still need to be passed by the House. This is more likely now, after a special election was held for the seat vacated by Sara Innamorato (PA-21 in Allegheny County). That resignation left the House deadlocked at 101-101, but Lindsay Powell won the special election that was held Tuesday, September 19 returning House Democrats to their 102-101 majority.  

 

We are pleased to report that based on the information available, several of Life Sciences Pennsylvania’s budget priorities are maintained at their current levels. A readout on the budget priorities and funding for additional programs of interest to the life sciences are as follows:

 

  • The Ben Franklin Technology Partners maintain their total funding of $17 million.  

  • The budget continues to provide $3 million to the three ($1 million each) Life Sciences Greenhouses to fund early-stage, innovative life sciences companies.  

  • $33 million for the Pennsylvania First (PA First) program. PA First is a comprehensive funding tool to facilitate increased investment and job creation within the commonwealth.  

  • The budget funds the newly created Office of Transformation and Opportunity – a one-stop-shop for businesses looking to grow and an office that will work closely with Commonwealth agencies to facilitate economic growth, job creation and innovation. 

 

We will continue to monitor legislative developments for updates on additional programs such as the Research & Development Tax Credits, Keystone Innovation Zones, CURE Funding, and additional policy priorities.  

New State Legislator Meetings

As part of our ongoing efforts in Harrisburg, Life Sciences PA has been holding meetings with legislators elected to the General Assembly in 2022. These meetings, with the State Policy Committee, are a helpful way to meet with new legislators, understand their priorities, and provide information to them on the makeup and policy focus on Life Sciences PA. In the third quarter of 2023, meetings were held with Representatives Arvind Venkat (D-30), Heather Boyd (D-163), John Schlegel (R-101), and Greg Scott (D-54). Life Sciences PA will continue to hold these discussions throughout the year.
