Has Sequestration Affected You?

Mandatory spending cuts (“sequestration”) are expected to impact federal agencies’ budgets for 2013 and beyond. The impacts of these cuts are unknown but could result in furloughs, contract losses, grant reductions/cancellations, etc.

ACS is conducting a survey to assess the impact of sequestration on our members. Survey results will provide us with real-world data and reports about the cuts’ impact on the chemical enterprise, which we can share with policymakers on Capitol Hill and in the Administration.

If sequestration has a direct impact on you, we would greatly appreciate your participation.
