Cutting NOAA’s budget by $387M while preserving Boulder labs? Classic D.C. theater. The House appropriations draft still wastes billions propping up redundant climate programs instead of prioritizing weather forecasting and disaster readiness. Climate research isn’t the problem—bloated bureaucracy is.

NOAA’s own audits show XX% of its budget goes to administrative overhead, not science. Redirect those funds to core missions like hurricane tracking and wildfire modeling. If Boulder labs can’t streamline, they’re part of the waste.

Real reform means slashing bureaucracy, not critical research—but Congress keeps funding pet projects over actual priorities.

See which programs are draining resources and what real reform would look like:
