@jimlangevin sequestration was only lowering the growth % of spending, so how can NIH blame sequestration when spending is up over last yr? -
@j_gardner@jimlangevin NIH got $30.7 bil in '11, '12 & '13 (flat funded) so 5% cut = real. Still="Washington Monument" tactic. srcs2follow -
@marccomtois ah, I didn't realize NIH was flat-budgeted. I thought all dept's were part of baseline budgeting system. -
@j_gardner Me too, but I thought I'd check to be sure. Assuming=etc..Irony is flat fund would save more than sequester#unthinkable
