After months of speculation about funding for science in the Fiscal Year 1998 (FY 1998) federal budget, some first figures became available in late June for the National Science Foundation and NASA—when the House of Representatives' VA, HUD, Independent Agencies Appropriations Subcommittee marked up its bill. However, details may not be known until July 8, when the full House Appropriations Committee meets to vote on the legislation. The full House is expected to vote on the appropriations the week of July 13. The Senate Appropriations Subcommittee, which has less overall money to spend, is expected to complete its work the week of July 13 also. The following information is known about the House bill.
