Uncertainty in American Politics Lead to Uncertainty in SBIR/STTR   I'm sure it is no surprise to you that with politics being at its lowest level in recent memory, the near future of government programs and budgets are in disarray.  Under our current Continuing Resolution (CR), our government is only funded through Dec 9, 2016, and it will be up to our returning Congressionals to address another CR (albeit short or long term) in this lame duck session of our 114th Congress.  I do fear the term "lame duck" will be an insult to our fine feathered friends.
