A Preview Report for Congressional Action on Research and Development in the FY1999 Budget.
Abstract
This AAAS R&D Funding Update is a preview of the forthcoming publication Congressional Action on Research and Development in the FY 1999 Budget. (Ordering information is on the last page). This report provides estimates of FY 1999 appropriations as signed into 1aw for research and development. On October 21, three weeks into fiscal year (FY) 1999, President Clinton signed an omnibus appropriations bill (Public Law 105-277) into law, completing action on FY 1999 appropriations for the federal investment in research and development (R&D). The bill is a massive compilation of eight out of the 13 annual appropriations bills as well as supplemental and emergency appropriations and unrelated legislation. Five appropriations bills were enacted separately. Together, these FY 1999 bills provide unprecedented funding levels for federal R&D. Every year, AAAS analyzes appropriations as signed into law and provides detailed estimates on the federal investment in R&D for new fiscal year in the publication Congressional Action on Research and Development. The FY 1999 edition will be released in late November. This preview report offers selected highlights from the book.
