- redcobra762 3y agoIt’s not like Congress needs to separately pass funding for the NPS. In 2023, the NPS was given a 6% budget increase, even!
- adamryman 3y agoLet's say the NSF wanted to give everyone in NSF raises in 2023 to offset inflation from 2022. I believe that would require a 6.5% increase right? I personally believe that the people there deserve more salary than just meeting inflation, though imo.
- redcobra762 3y agoWhoa no, 100% of their funds don't go to salaries. I'd guess it would be substantially lower than a 6.5% budget increase, even.
