A House subcommittee proposed a 7 percent cut to NASA next year including reductions to moon and Mars missions as part of a 92.9 billion package. The panel also trims environment, science, and housing, redirecting funds to raise veterans health care by 2 billion to 30.3 billion, signaling wartime priorities amid an election year.
