Create biopharmaceutical centers of excellence
Media

Communication and Public Narrative

Elevate the narrative of why this is urgent to the public and media.

Make the case for a Center of Excellence in plain language that connects domestic biomanufacturing to supply security and practical capability-building. Use a communications campaign that explains “how to manufacture” capacity (not just research) and keeps the message tied to the bill’s concrete next steps. Package the story under broader themes already present in the cause materials—health security, jobs, and innovation—without overclaiming outcomes.

Why this works

  • Strong public support and understanding can push Congress to act.
  • If voters hear “we might rely on China for cancer drugs if we don’t act,” that creates pressure.
  • Also, highlighting local benefits (like “this could bring 1,000 jobs to our state”) wins hearts and minds.
  • It's also a feel-good bipartisan story for media - “Congress actually agrees on something: making life-saving medicines in America.”

Mechanism

How Center for Food Safety uses funding

About Media
  1. Produce explainers that translate supply chain vulnerability and biomanufacturing needs into plain stakes.
  2. Highlight the legislative vehicle and pilot funding next steps described in the cause materials.
  3. Pitch earned media and events at facilities that could evolve into the center, as referenced in the strategy text.
  4. Use health security and national security framing already present in the cause materials.
  5. Amplify bipartisan endorsements to make the center a consensus item.
  6. Coordinate messaging with legislative and agency groundwork so the narrative supports action.
