    The study of parton energy loss in cold nuclear matter is crucial for understanding the nuclear medium properties in heavy ion experiments.
    The E906/SeaQuest experiment at Fermilab, which completed data taking in 2017, is a fixed-target dimuon spectrometer measuring Drell-Yan, $J/\psi$, and $\psi'$ production for p+A collisions with H, D, C, Fe, and W targets.
    The Drell-Yan process is a clean channel for measuring initial-state quark energy loss through the nuclear modification $R_{pA}$.
    The Fermilab Main Injector beam energy of 120 GeV ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}=15$ GeV) amplifies the expected energy loss effects relative to previous experiments with higher beam energies.
    The spectrometer acceptance is optimal for large target $x$ where other nuclear effects, such as shadowing, are expected to be small.
    We present recent progress towards this measurement.
