The NIH overhead cut doesn't just hurt universities.
It's deadly to the US economy.
The US is a world leader in tech due to the ecosystem that NIH and NSF propel. It drives innovation for tech transfer, creates a highly-skilled sci/tech workforce, and fosters academic/industry crossfertilization.

2. While NSF and NIH indeed have a mission to fund specific research innovations via grantmaking, they do a lot more than that.
Their principal role is support a scientific ecosystem in the United States, that includes everything from education and training to infrastructure and communication.

Trump just terminated the Chair of the Kennedy Center and has installed himself as the new chair.
He says he will now be dictating the institution’s “art and culture” and says it “must reflect” what he chooses.

It seems highly likely Republicans will propose Medicaid spending reductions to help pay for tax cuts. Whether Medicaid cuts pass is by no means certain. In the past, there has been major pushback from governors, patient groups, hospitals, nursing homes, and insurers.
