Federal Research and Development (R and D) Funding: FY2019
Abstract
President Trump's budget request for FY2019 includes approximately $131.0 billion for research and development (R and D), of which $118.056 billion is included in the President's budget and an estimated additional $12.9 billion in nondefense discretionary R and D is requested as part of an addendum to the President's budget. The additional funding requested in the addendum followed enactment of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 (P.L. 115-123), which raised defense and nondefense discretionary spending caps for FY2018 and FY2019. In April 2018, the Administration issued amendments to the President's request, including language needed to clarify the funds requested in the addendum. Agencies appear to have included this proposed funding in their budget justifications, and this funding is included in the agency analyses in this report.
