Los Alamos and Sandia National Labs receive roughly half of their yearly operating budgets from the NNSA’s budget. Without passage of this legislation, these labs will be forced to furlough employees – hurting our communities and the security of our nation. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
