WASHINGTON — For the second consecutive year, the White House is proposing a major budget cut for NASA that would significantly reduce the agency's science programs and International Space Station operations.
The brief summary released by OMB did not disclose many details about the NASA budget, but the 2027 proposal includes many of the same proposed cuts as in 2026. Science, for example, would be cut by $3.4 billion, or 47%.
Democratic members of Congress made similar arguments in response to the 2027 budget proposal "This budget request should be ignored," said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif. , ranking member of the House Science Committee, in a statement April 3.
