Demand the board of the National Science Foundation be restored.

To: Sen. Scott, Sen. Graham, Rep. Wilson

From: A verified voter in North Augusta, SC

May 4

Science should be evidence-based, not political. I’m concerned that all 22 members of the advisory board overseeing the U.S. National Science Foundation were abruptly dismissed on April 24 and without explanation. Republicans are destroying the foundation of basic research. It risks setting science back decades, as well as causing "brain drain" as scientists leave the US for jobs in other countries. What are you doing to protect evidence-based science that is vital to society? Please take a stand on this issue. Please push to restore the original board of the National Science Foundation. Work to restore funding and qualified people in all of our federal organizations.
