🚨Academic scientist friends who are members-ideally leaders- of scientific professional societies, I need your help. 🚨

There is a sign-letter being prepared that will speak out against recent politicization of scientific funding and demonization of scientific researchers.

It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

Step 1) find your rep

Step 2) send an email or call their office

Step 3) tell them that federal spending on scientific advancement is the best hope we have to “win against china” or whatever these guys are obsessed with these days

The first Trump administration eviscerated science in the federal government at the EPA, NOAA, and elsewhere, and brought in deep climate deniers. It took 4 years of the Biden administration to rebuild science at the federal level and now it's going to be gutted again. Stand up for science.

Art is more important now than ever.
I've talked to a few folks this morning who were talking about stopping work on their creative projects. Because it's "not important anymore."

I don't know who needs to hear this, but DON'T DO THAT.

We win by living our lives as loudly and truly as we can. That includes your "silly" art project.

Hey you! Yes, you.

You can save lives by helping the government regulate pedestrian crash safety standards for obscenely large passenger trucks and SUVs. Add your feedback here and make your voice heard that we need mandatory pedestrian crash safety standards.
