I’m deeply alarmed by DOGE’s cuts to the National Weather Service. It is deeply understaffed as we head into hurricane and tornado season—that’s a formula for disaster. While we don’t yet know if this staffing shortage was responsible for 27 deaths in Missouri and Kentucky this week, we do know that people will die as a result of these cuts. We need this funding restored. Extreme weather is a fact of life now. We’ve never needed the NWS more.
Also, I expect the Senator to vote no on the Genius Act (S. 394). Congress needs to make it harder, not easier, for the corrupt Trump administration to profit off of the presidency. I’ll be outraged if this bill passes. You guys work for us. Protect us from Trump’s corruption. Vote no. Thanks.
