I love this. I've already been doing something similar for a while.
Don't just sit there. Do something. Even small things add up over time.

Worrying signs for the US academic community: research funding cuts, political meddling, and now tighter limits on student and exchange-visitor visa durations. These moves threaten US leadership in education, research, and innovation.

FYI, an important action to take! Leave a public comment opposing the repeal of the EPA Endangerment Finding. All the details are in this #standupforscience post on BlueSky:

Hundreds of NASA employees and supporters have signed the #VoyagerDeclaration, formally expressing dissent against budget cuts and attacks on key NASA missions.
This action follows similar statements from #NIH and #EPA communities, voicing objection to the unlawful policies of the Trump administration.

The attacks on our immigrant communities contribute to the destruction of US science as well as the erosion of all our rights.
This Korean-American PhD candidate at Texas A&M, Will (Tae Heung) Kim, is a lawful resident who was arrested by #ICE at SFO airport upon returning from his brother's wedding in Korea.
"His detention appears to be based on a single, resolved 14-year-old misdemeanor for minimal marijuana possession."
Please sign.

Sideshow Bob showed up to the Idaho state capitol yesterday, and so did #Idaho resisters who are completely done with his bullshit.
Lovely artwork - made even more powerful by the message behind it.

Now or never! Time to stand up for science and keep politics out of evidence-based research.

#Pittsburgh and particularly CMU campus and Oakland area gearing up for TFG visit
A fair bit of #StandUpForScience #Indivisible organizing going on - besides student protests
"Climate scientists in the United States are to be cut off from satellite data measuring the amount of sea ice — a sensitive barometer of climate change — as the U.S. Department of Defense announces plans to cancel processing of the data for scientific research."
"The changes are the latest attacks by the U.S. government on science and the funding of scientific research in an effort to slash the budget to enable tax cuts elsewhere. Already, these attacks have seen the Goddard Institute for Space Studies and the National Science Foundation evicted from their offices, references to climate science removed from websites, funding of data for hurricane forecasts cancelled, and dozens of NASA missions under threat and their project teams asked to produce close-down plans as the space agency's budget is slashed."

The US Environmental Protection Agency placed 139 employees on administrative leave after they signed a “Stand Up for Science” petition using their official titles and EPA positions.

A diplomatically phrased but clear warning from the International Science Council.
"the International Science Council appeals to all decision makers to ensure
that the principles of science and its institutions are protected, and that
international scientific cooperation is maintained and ideally strengthened."

Today the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies celebrates its 85th birthday - founded in 1940 during, and in part because of, WW2 it reminds us that the pursuit of knowledge, science and scholarship is important and worthy of support even in the darkest of times. A message that sadly needs repetition today.
I can safely say Amanda speaks for most of us involved in research. The recent EOs are crippling U.S. research communities - we must act now!
