“…So I'm here today to set this goal: We will devote more than 3 percent of our GDP to research and development. We will not just meet, but we will exceed the level achieved at the height of the space race, through policies that invest in basic and applied research, create new incentives for private innovation, promote breakthroughs in energy and medicine, and improve education in math and science.”
“So we double the budget of key agencies, including the National Science Foundation, a primary source of funding for academic research; and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, which supports a wide range of pursuits from improving health information technology to measuring carbon pollution, from -- from testing "smart grid" designs to developing advanced manufacturing processes.”
“And my budget doubles funding for the Department of Energy's Office of Science, which builds and operates accelerators, colliders, supercomputers, high-energy light sources, and facilities for making nano-materials -- because we know that a nation's potential for scientific discovery is defined by the tools that it makes available to its researchers.”

American Recovery and Reinvestment ActProjects Proposed by Nuclear Physics
NP principles and assumptions in for use of ARRA funds:
Support the NP mission of fundamental and applied nuclear science– Create or retain jobs – Reduce cost and schedule risk of construction projects and MIEs– Enhance the capabilities of National User Facilities– Augment computing capabilities for theoretical calculations on the lattice– Enhance the Isotopes Program– Provide research and training opportunities for junior researchers and
researchers in skill areas that are short supply– Minimize out year mortgages
