Freeze? What freeze? FDA in line for another budget boost

The Food and Drug Administration is a screaming exception to the Obama administration’s freeze on discretionary spending in the 2011 budget.

Quote:
Overall, the FDA budget could grow by as much as 23% to just over $4 billion from the current $3.3 billion. But getting all of what the agency wants will require Congress to authorize more than a quarter-billion dollars of new fees on food facilities and generic drug makers.
