To update people on the NSF PRFB situation: despite the court challenge and rescinding the original memo, the NSF has continued to comply with the executive order. They have not communicated with us at all and our paychecks are still canceled indefinitely. I know people who cannot pay their rent.

A) This isn't over. They are coming for these cuts in their forthcoming budget bill that will also include massive tax breaks for billionaires. B) Don't forget that they were 100% willing to cause enormous harm to millions of people. C) Public outcry still matters and can make a difference!
