All #CERT, #SKYWARN, and #ARES volunteers and #amateurradio operators must sign this petition. #standupforscience
Y'ALL.
I got an email from Stand Up For Science inviting me to send a "Quack-o-gram" to my representative for $3.
Stand Up For Science will hand deliver a rubber ducky and the serious message "KENNEDY MUST GO" to your member of Congress, all for less than the cost of a latte.
I call that a deal.
I guess we're just all tweeting like Trump now?
Anyway, here's the link to the petition that Stand Up For Science intends to deliver to key members of Congress. Sideshow Bob is gonna kill us! He must go now!

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.

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.

#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."

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.
So many people coming forward to speak up for #Science
Scientists, grant administrators, long retired professors from Pitt Med school, undergraduates and grad students from #Pitt and #CarnegieMellon
Non scientists too
They kept coming up! So awesome. One undergrad (here for summer research) mentioned how hopeful this gathering and speakers made her.
(Won't post their pics/faces here - but it was super encouraging)
No drizzle - nice sunshine this evening at the #MellonInstitute steps here in #Pittsburgh for the #StandUpForScience Vigil
We have a poster board with names of cancelled grants at #CarnegieMellon and #Pitt and paper for people to write down why they do, or how they've been affected by cuts to #Science or why it's important to them
Lots of sidewalk chalk messages from people too.
Continuous trickle of people coming up to speak for few minutes.

Crowd estimate is 10K for the downtown #Pittsburgh #NoKings Protest (see ). Nice!
There are still two others later today - near Mellon Park and one in the South Hills, Mt Lebo area.
There's also the Vigil at my work building this evening. Off to that in a bit
