AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 minutes ago

NIH Funding Fight: Sen. Patty Murray and Sen. Tammy Baldwin led colleagues in demanding OMB halt any plan to let political appointees veto NIH grant awards, arguing it would undermine peer review and lifesaving biomedical research. AI Supply-Chain Ruling: The D.C. Circuit upheld the Pentagon’s ban on Anthropic’s Claude from the military supply chain, saying restrictions could create national security risk. Defense Tech: The Navy showed flight testing of the Blackbeard hypersonic strike missile under F/A-18 Super Hornets, aiming for limited service by 2028. Drones at the Border: DHS warned after 300+ “hostile” cartel drones were detected in a little over a month, with more detection and interception tools being deployed. STEM + Community Tech: McCreary County students are helping build a stronger emergency communications network using a locally focused mesh radio system, with a drone demo planned at a regional tech showcase. Education + Equity: A New York Times essay debate resurfaced after Nikole Hannah-Jones described how her daughter’s school choice left her feeling shortchanged. Animal Testing Law: A bipartisan bill (COMPACT Act) would end federal funding for live cat and dog testing while tightening protections and oversight. Climate/Water Stewardship: USDA announced $5M for conservation easements to restore wetlands and floodplains, aiming to improve water quality and reduce flooding.
