An open letter to the U.S. Senate

Block Neil Jacobs' Nomination to NOAA for Scientific Integrity

89 so far! Help us get to 100 signers!

The nomination of Neil Jacobs to lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is concerning given his involvement in the "Sharpiegate" controversy. His actions undermined the integrity of weather forecasting and public trust in scientific data by defending President Trump's inaccurate claim about Hurricane Dorian's path. Appointing someone who prioritized political interests over scientific facts to head a crucial agency tasked with monitoring the environment and climate change would be a disservice to the American people. I urge you to block this nomination and instead appoint a qualified leader committed to upholding scientific integrity and transparency at NOAA.
