Congressional Report Examines Impact of Politics on Scientific Research

From the Politics and Science website, presented by Rep. Henry A. Waxman, Ranking Member, Committee on Government Reform, Minority Office:

  • A new report, August 2003, Politics and Science, (40 pages, pdf) “finds numerous instances where the Administration has manipulated the scientific process and distorted or suppressed scientific findings. Beneficiaries include important supporters of the President, including social conservatives and powerful industry groups.”
