Excerpt
Summary: The Bush Administration has requested $132. billion in federal research and development (R&D) funding for FY2006. This sum, represents a $505 million increase over the FY2005 estimated funding level of $131.7 billion. In real dollars, total federal R&D would decline for the first time since FY1996. The proposed FY2006 R&D budget reflects the Administration’s objective of constraining the growth of federal discretionary spending.
