The US has long been a hub for innovation, boasting some of the world's greatest scientists. However, Trump's proposed funding cuts threaten to undermine this lead in science and technology. With the government's support crucial for research and development, experts warn that these cuts could drive top talent out of the country, compromising America's position as a global leader in fields like artificial intelligence and biotechnology. As the US competes with other nations to stay ahead in the tech race, it's essential to ensure that funding for science and research is prioritized. Key areas like STEM education and research grants are at risk.
