The National Science Foundation's money, the whole of it, traced to the source.

Office of Budget, Finance & Award Management · NSF

NSF is almost entirely discretionary research funding — read by appropriation account, with Research & Related Activities the dominant account. The FY2027 request proposes a sharp reduction; this monitor represents that change exactly as the source states, keeps the small mandatory funding strictly separate, and recomputes every number against its own source.
