Support America's leadership in research and technology

To: Sen. Hawley, Rep. Bell, Sen. Schmitt

From: A verified voter in Saint Louis, MO

May 22, 2025

Proposed FY26 budget cuts for the National Science Foundation (NSF) threaten to undermine America’s scientific leadership, economic competitiveness, and security. Even worse, the administration has terminated more than 1,600 existing research grants totaling $1.5 billion. Undermining the NSF’s capacity to support foundational research and cultivate scientific talent will cede our competitive edge to global rivals. If the proposed cuts are passed by Congress, we will no longer be in competition with China; we will have lost.
