    Dr. Arthur Lupia Assistant Director for Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences National Science Foundation Before the Subcommittee on Research and Technology Committee on Science, Space and Technology United States House of Representatives on “Artificial Intelligence and The Future of Work” September 24, 2019 Introduction Chairwoman Stevens, Ranking Member Baird, and members of the subcommittee, it is a privilege to be with you today to discuss how the National Science Foundation (NSF) is positioning the United States to continue our strong leadership in the development of new technologies and to also respond to the challenges and opportunities those new technologies present for the future of jobs and work. Established by the National Science Foundation Act of 1950 (P.L. 81-507), NSF is an independent Federal agency whose mission is “to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense; and for other purposes.” NSF is unique in carrying out its mission by supporting fundamental research across all fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and all levels of STEM education. NSF is also committed to the development of a future-focused science and engineering workforce that draws on the talents of all Americans. NSF accounts for approximately 25 percent of the total Federal budget for basic research conducted at U.S. colleges and universities and has been vital to many discoveries that impact our daily lives and drive the economy. NSF is and will continue to be a respected steward of taxpayer dollars, operating with integrity, openness, and transparency. A vibrant scientific workforce and breakthrough discoveries enabled in part by NSF investments sustain, accelerate, and transform America’s globally preeminent innovation ecosystem.
