Public outcry works. NOAA’s College Park Weather Center—once on the chopping block—might have been spared thanks to overwhelming pushback from scientists, lawmakers, and the public. But let’s be clear: NOAA still faces devastating workforce cuts that weaken forecasts and put lives at risk.

Cuts at NOAA compromise the nation’s ability to monitor fish stocks, leading to greater risk of overfishing and economic losses for the $321B industry that sustained 2.3M jobs in 2022. #SaveNOAA #NOAA #ScienceMatters #FederalLayoffs

NOAA’s workforce cuts aren’t just an attack on science—they’re a national security failure. The Arctic is a strategic frontier, and losing NOAA’s expertise means losing scientific ground to global adversaries. www.highnorthnews.com/en/us-steps-...

“At one point during this week’s severe storms, 11 weather radars were down nationwide – nearly 10% of the country’s fleet.” 10% is a lot of risk when your home lies in the path of a tornado. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

#SAVENOAA ALERT: We understand that 16 of our colleagues have now had their terminations rescinded. We are thrilled for them, and we welcome this news! However, the vast majority of terminated NOAA employees have not been reinstated, and more cuts are imminent: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/08/c...

🚨 Weather Forecasts Are Already Being Compromised 🚨 Former NOAA Administrator Dr. Rick Spinrad revealed that forecasters at the Dallas-Fort Worth office were unable to warn of recent tornadoes in West Texas because “the people who did that had been fired.” #SaveNOAA

DOGE says it has only slashed non-essential personnel from federal agencies. That is a lie. As severe storms sweep the nation, NOAA’s forecasting and research offices are now understaffed: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... #SaveNOAA #NOAA #FederalLayoffs #ScienceMatters

A week ago today, I was wrongfully fired along with hundreds of others by @noaa.gov. NOAA provides life-saving forecasts, critical climate data, and tools that protect lives, communities, and economies. The staff who remain need our support now more than ever. #SaveNOAA @savenoaa.bsky.social

Some federal workers are going back to work. The USDA has been ordered to temporarily give over 5,000 workers their jobs back. Dozens of CDC scientists have been reinstated after being illegally fired. The National Science Foundation has rehired half of the workers it fired.

NOAA provides Americans with critical, lifesaving information about our planet. Gutting NOAA leaves us vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and environmental disasters. Call on your congresspeople to #SaveNOAA: community.citizensclimate.org/tools/protec... @vanhollen.senate.gov

Thank you, @ametsoc.org for standing up for NOAA! AMS warns that these workforce cuts threaten public safety & economic stability. NOAA's work saves lives & fuels industries. Slashing NOAA risks irreparable harm to our nation. Restore these critical jobs before it’s too late. #savenoaa

Americans don’t just depend on NOAA for their daily forecasts. NOAA’s dedicated public servants are behind your access to healthy seafood, safe marine navigation, and disaster response resources. Ask your members of Congress to step up to #SaveNOAA: community.citizensclimate.org/tools/protec...

Since Hurricane Andrew in 1992, @noaa.gov has advanced forecasting—today’s 5-day forecast is as accurate as a 1-day forecast then. Recent cuts threaten this progress, making life-saving warnings harder to deliver when the next hurricane strikes.
