federal budget

A draft bill released by the US House of Representatives appropriations committee would increase the 2019 National Institutes of Health budget by 3 percent.

Under a proposed spending bill, the US National Institutes of Health would see an additional $3 billion in funding.

Leaders in the US Senate have come up with a budget agreement to keep the government funded, though it still needs to pass, the New York Times reports.

Lacking funding, the US federal government has shut down, leading science agencies to cease much of their work.

The US federal government, including science agencies, prepare for a possible shutdown if a stopgap spending bill isn't passed by tonight.

A continuing resolution keeps the US government funded, but gives uncertainty to science agencies's budgets, ScienceInsider says.

The Washington Post reports that US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials have been told to avoid certain terms.

The New York Times writes that US lawmakers have rejected President Trump's proposal to cut NIH funding.
