The proposed cuts target familiar science and research programs.

The NSF, which funds roughly a quarter of all federally supported basic science and engineering research in the U.S., would see its budget fall from $8.1 billion this year to $7.1 billion in 2020. The White House also sought to defer upgrades to NASA’s Space Launch System — a powerful new rocket that is still in development — and move some its proposed payloads to other vehicles.
Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson , the chair of the House Science Committee, called the cuts to science “unreasonably deep.” But Congress, which has the power of the purse, largely ignored the 2018 Trump budget requests and protected the agencies. This year the Environmental Protection Agency — one of the president’s favored political targets — was subject to some of the most severe cuts. Trump’s budget would reduce EPA funding $2.8 billion, a 31 percent cut from its current budget.
