The National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST), a laboratory of the Department of Commerce, was a major player in the Clinton Administration's strategy for civilian technology investment. However, the 104th Congress cut funding levels 18% between FY 1995 and FY 1997. In FY 1998, this trend was temporarily reversed when the NIST budget increased 20% primarily due to additional financing for construction. FY 1999 appropriations were 5% below the previous year, while FY 2000 support remined constant. In FY2001, the NIST appropriation decreased 6% to $598.3 million as a result of fewer construciton dollars. For FY2002, President Bush has requested $487.5 million to fund NIST, almost 19% below the current fiscal year. While new funding for the Advanced Technology Program would be curtailed, the budget proposal includes an 11% percent increase in support for the laboratory's internal research and development activities.
