  • Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., and Rep. Mike Haridopolos, R-Fla., join "CUOMO" to discuss President Trump's proposed budget.

The article from Yahoo News discusses the proposed budget cuts by former President Donald Trump that targeted various scientific and research agencies, highlighting the long-term detrimental effects these reductions could have had on U.S. scientific advancement.
