CDC Library staff and the larger Office of Science Quality and Library Services have yet to be re-hired at the CDC!!! Please contact your elected reps to advocate for the reinstatement of the CDC Library. Every little bit helps!

All RIFs impact the public more than I think most US residents realize but just skimming Alt CDC's posts tonight leaves me with a sinking feeling.
Sending love to my fellow feds. We will persevere. And we will win.

You don’t need us toiling in Pubmed for days at a time during an outbreak. The library helps us get what we need quickly so we can continue our work.

Every PhD student and postdoc who worked their butts off to learn hard things about science, and then contribute to human knowledge— especially those fired by Andrew Nixon’s HHS— should laugh at him.
This is right.
He’s a grossly unqualified person in charge of public health.

@firedbutfighting.bsky.social posted some useful info on Mr. Andrew Nixon.
He’s 27, and his main experience is being the press person for Trump’s inauguration.
Conservative hacks like this fail upwards into other rightwing money positions.

Heartbroken & devastated at Trump administration’s directive to end specialized support for LGBTQ+ youth callers to 988 hotline. This attack will DIRECTLY HARM American children. Youth using hotline are at their lowest point; specialized support is LIFE SAVING.
We stand with the LGBTQ+ community.

Every Friday, @firedbutfighting.bsky.social shares the story of a real federal employee that was fired through the Trump administration's reckless cuts. The one for this week just dropped and it got us in the feels. 22 YEARS OF WORK. #firedbutfighting #RIF
1/7 🧵 This week’s Fed Worker Friday started her training as a lab scientist in high school. She continued this training in college. During college she spent a summer in Kenya through NIH’s Fogarty International Research Training Program. She did water quality testing & learned about public health.

Thank you @warnock.senate.gov, for standing with the thousands of fired CDC workers. These cuts weaken our national public health response. I stand with @apha.org in advocating for justice and science‑based public health policy.

Secretary Kennedy has not responded to my letter from last month demanding answers on why thousands of CDC workers were wrongfully terminated.
So I went to the CDC yesterday to demand that this administration protect public health and reinstate these workers immediately.
