Actually under the proposed budget, NASA gets a budget INCREASE. I don't know exactly how the money will get distributed but I do know that there were some cuts to the International Space Station and a mission to Pluto was cut. However, Mars research was increased. In all honesty, I don't know where the funding for FIRST comes from but out of speculation it'd come from NASA's education budget (I'm sure they have one). Also, education across the board has been increased under the proposed budget. Now mind you, this is a proposed budget but it's unlikely that more cuts will be made than already have.
