Public support for Scientific Research. Investments in science are essential if our country is to continue to lead the world in nanotechnology, supercomputering and other fields that yield new jobs and entire new cities. The way to restore public support is not to continue grants with taxpayer money. The amendment is a small but important step in the right direction and it sets the precedent for the science committee, the appropriations committee, and the house to take additional steps in the future to assure that n.
