The recent presidential budget request has a 40% increase in military spending and 10% cut to non-military spending, including a 25% cut to the NIH.
It seems worth pointing out that NIH (and other R&D) boosts the economy by 250%, whereas military spending (except R&D) shrinks the economy by 10%.
Research advocacy group United for Medical Research reported that NIH grant money stimulated the US economy, but certain funding mechanisms may limit future benefits.
