Pennsylvania's republican AG, David Sunday, is going to sit on his hands and not sue the NIH for their plan to cut millions of dollars from PA universities. When the job losses start - you know who to blame! Remember that he sided with Musk and not Pennsylvanians!

They claim they can snatch people up, put them on planes, and deport them to a country run by an authoritarian, where those people will be forced to work slave labor at an inhumane prison. All without due process, and in defiance of federal courts.

Please consider contacting societies to share your appreciation for their advocacy! It's important for them to hear from people who support their efforts. A repost in support of action isn't always as noticeable as disapproving or critical comments/messages are.
