February 20 update: - On
February 15, President Bush signed into law a spending bill to finalize the FY
2007 appropriations bills left unfinished by the previous Congress. The 'joint
funding resolution' provides funding for the entire fiscal year for all programs
funded by 9 FY 2007 appropriations bills covering most domestic programs, mostly
at FY 2006 funding levels but with increases for selected programs. The revised
AAAS analysis of R&D in FY 2007 appropriations based
on the new funding resolution is now available. All federal agencies now have
their final FY 2007 budgets.
