Abstract
The Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Veterans' Affairs, Housing and Urban Development, and Independent Agencies, chaired by Barbara Mikulski (D‐MD), will mark up the Fiscal Year 1990 budget bill early in the week of September 11. Congressional staff members have told the Coalition for National Science Funding that cuts in the National Science Foundation budget, from House‐approved levels, are possible.The bill passed by the House allocates $1715 million for NSF research programs, an increase of $132 million or 8.3% above 1989 levels. After accounting for inflation the increase is about 4%. The House cut $88 million from the NSF budget request, which proposed a 14% increase as the next step in the already‐delayed doubling of NSF programs.
