California's $7.5 billion science funding plan heads to voters
Original: $7.5B plan for California science agency free from Trump’s influence will go to voters
A $7.5 billion bond measure to fund a California state science agency independent of federal influence under the Trump administration is set to go before voters. The plan would channel billions into scientific research in the state at a time when federal science funding faces cuts and political interference, making California's approach a potential model for other states.
Why now: Ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and the scientific community have made state-level alternatives to federal science funding a hot topic.
