As a technology professional and one of the 150,000 US members of IEEE-USA, I urge you to support strong FY25 federal research and development (R&D) funding required to retain U.S. technological leadership and create high-impact STEM jobs in the United States. Specifically, I request your support for funding levels of at least $10.18B for the National Science Foundation (NSF), to include $900M for the NSF Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (TIP), and at least $1.5B for the National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the Fiscal Year 2025 Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill. For several years and across both parties, Congress has rightly prioritized U.S. leadership in the global future of critical technologies and industries. However, recent reductions in funding for the federal agencies vital to this success appear to signal otherwise. America’s national and economic security depend on a strong technology sector and the workforce needed to maintain it. Yet without the necessary investments in our federal R&D infrastructure, we may cede global leadership to competitors. Please prioritize this important funding as part of the FY25 appropriations process.
