Without govt funding you simply don't have the community of scientists scattered across the US that helped the US to take the lead in scientific development in the 20th century!
Members of Congress should be all over how this affects their districts!

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
