I don't agree with this bill. It's just another example of wasteful spending by the government. We already have plenty of studies on TB, so why do we need to spend more money on this? It's ridiculous. There are so many other important issues that need to be addressed, and this bill is just a distraction from those. I hope it doesn't pass.
