Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. 2/3

FY25 appropriation was $9.06B. That included $7.18B for research account, and $1.17B for education. Then Trump eliminated $234M for MREFC, leaving NSF with $8.73B for FY25. His FY26 request for both research and education totals $3.74B.
