The Coalition for National Security Research, of which AAU is a member, sent a letter to the Secretary of Defense and Director of the Office of Managment and Budget urging increases in the Defense S&T program.
"In an effort to begin to reach recommended funding levels, we urge you to include at least a 4
percent increase over enacted levels in the Defense S&T program including the defense basic
research programs in the FY 2020 budget request."
