May 28 - Supplement to the AAAS analysis of the Outyear Projections in the
FY 2005 budget: On May 19, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
notified federal agencies that if President Bush wins reelection, next year's
FY 2006 budget request would cut spending for nearly all domestic programs as
projected in February's FY 2005 budget, and that agencies should prepare to make
cuts for most domestic programs when they prepare their initial FY 2006 proposals.
The OMB memo leaked to the media this week as agencies begin preparing their FY
2006 requests. Nearly all federal R&D programs outside the priority
areas of defense, space, and homeland security would see their budgets decline
in FY 2006 under the scenario that OMB directs agencies to follow, even programs
that would receive increases in FY 2005. These projected cuts are described in
a supplement to the AAAS analysis of the outyear projections in the FY 2005 budget: "Most
R&D Agencies Prepare for Cuts in FY 2006" (PDF)
