The Fiscal Context for FY 2015 Reminder: Budget Control Act’s two baselines
“pre-sequester” and “post-sequester”
Congress keeps rolling the cuts back (partially) FY14: 50% reduction, FY15: 20% reduction
Discretionary spending cap: $1.014 trillion 0.2% above FY14
FY 2016 and beyond – back to sequester levels

Administration R&D Priorities Department of Energy: NNSA, renewables and efficiency,
ARPA-E Neuroscience NASA: industry partnerships Transportation: highways and high-performance rail Extramural ag research (“innovation institutes”) Advanced Manufacturing
COMPETES Agencies: $11 billion for R&D (+1% from FY14) Research budget hit?
(not really)

Other Notes NIH: Translational science, Alzheimer's, mental health,
big data
Federal R&D drops to 0.75% of GDP (post WWII low)
Opportunity, Growth and Security Initiative: Extra funding

Appropriations So Far
Bills in play have covered funding for NSF, NASA, NOAA, USDA, Transportation, DOE, Defense, NIH, DHS
A typically mixed bag, but perhaps more positive than negative Sequestration recovery sustained/continued

Appropriations So Far (continued) Senate: NIH gets a boost
House: DOE offices flat or cut
House: DHS, Defense science boosted above request
Varying numbers for USDA
Transportation: mostly “no thanks”
