Bill Buoys Science Funding
Abstract:
NSF is to get an 8% increase, or $335 million, to $4.7 billion. This increase is about what President George W. Bush proposed for the agency a year ago. Also, laboratory programs at the National Institute of Standards & Technology would receive a $50 million increase for physical science programs and nanotechnology research.
