Trump Administration Cuts Funding and Staff for Flagship Climate Report

NSF, NASA and NIH budgets per year, inflation adjusted from 2000-2025 along with the proposed cuts. NSF includes research component only. Massive cuts across all sectors, well below support spanning 25 years.

The President's Budget request as released yesterday will gut scientific research. Why should you care?

β€œthis idea that you get what you voted for… the reality is that me and everybody else I worked with at NOAA really cares about every single one of the hundreds of millions of people in this country. We don’t care what your personal opinions areβ€”we want you to be safe, we want you to be healthy… β€œ
