2011, 53 percent of all funding for basic research came from the federal
government. Yet as a percentage of our total federal budget, we spend less
than one-third on research and development today than we did in 1965. What
is even more alarming: while American federal expenditures on research and
development are shrinking, the rest of the world is spending more.

Just a week after President Barack Obama released a budget that showed a
renewed commitment to funding innovation and discovery, Assistant Senate
Majority Leader Richard Durbin will deliver a speech at the Center for
National Policy to discuss the devastating impact cutting back on federally
funded research and development will have on our future, and what we can do
to reverse the trend. RSVP
