Engage with AAAS: What the Administration’s FY27 Budget Request Means for Science

When:  Apr 22, 2026 from 01:00 PM to 02:00 PM (ET)

Join us for our next member and partner “Engage with AAAS” virtual event on Wednesday, April 22 at 1 pm ET, on the future of science funding in America. The U.S. administration recently shared an initial look at its fiscal year 2027 budget request, which once again threatens federal investments in research and development. But these proposed cuts are not final. Join staff from the AAAS Office of Government Relations to learn more about the administration’s initial budget figures and what we can expect for the budget process in a midterm election year. You will also hear how AAAS is advocating on behalf of our members, and how you can mobilize locally to advocate for R&D funding and our nation’s future. There will be a Q&A for attendees.
