Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies

Appropriations for programs within the Commerce, Justice, and Science bill provide critical investments for scientific research at the National Science Foundation, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Institute for Standards and Technology, and the Economic Development Administration. These investments are crucial to spur new knowledge and technologies that will ignite new industries that strengthen our economy and keep the U.S. safe, healthy, and prosperous.
