The hearing charter makes no mention of the Trump administration's Orwellian keyword-based "vetting" of scientific crimethink

You can also contact your members of Congress who are on the committee. Ask them to submit this WaPo story and any others you find into the record of the hearing.

NSF is scouring research grants for violations of Trump’s unconstitutional orders to violate the nation’s civil rights protections.

Heather was my "boss" at SD Mines for a couple of years. She eliminated the Atmospheric Sciences department in the hopes that it would disappear. I'm pleased to say we've outlived her last three jobs.

@jeremymberg.bsky.social can you help out in any way?

jeremymberg.bsky.social•19 days ago

I am confident that Dr. Parikh will speak out. He knows NIH well.

neurodevkathy.bsky.social•18 days ago

Good to know. Thanks

jeremymberg.bsky.social•18 days ago

He was a longtime hill staffer working on NIH issues and has other relevant background experiences.

A reminder that the current Senate Majority Leader's biggest victory when he chaired the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee was landing the 2017 Weather Bill.
