Eddie Bernice Johnson actually said...

the budget proposal before us, and the actions taken to undercut the Federal scientific workforce, are not worthy of this great Nation.

the proposal includes severe cuts to atmospheric and ocean research at NOAA.

When we leverage the best available science, we can help make government programs perform better, deliver services quicker, and save money.

This proposal represents a 6 percent increase for R&D. This is a creative use of math that has not fooled us.
