R&D Earmarks in the FY 2010 Budget by Agency
The total dollar value of R&D earmarks after Congressional action on the FY 2010 budget is slightly less than in FY 2009 at $4.3 billion or 2.8 percent of total R&D spending. However, this is still much more than the $1.5 – $2.5 billion seen in the early 2000s due mostly to a large increase in Department of Defense RDT&E earmarks.
