We worked late tonight coming up with this handy pocket guide to send to NPR.

The House Appropriations Committee markup is the next step in the process to Save American Science. I detailed the devastating nature of the cuts the president proposed here: bsky.app/profile/emex...
I work in space science, so I am most familiar with the proposed cuts and their impacts in my field: a 50% proposed cut to NASA's Science Mission Directorate. Dozens of missions canceled - including many that have already launched and are functioning perfectly. Tens of thousands of jobs.

So continue calling your reps especially if you're in an appropriations state or district.

Are you from one of these states? Then we need your help to save American science!
The Senate Appropriations Committee will be marking up the President's Budget Request for science on Wednesday. People have been saying the proposed cuts "decimated" US science, but that's wrong: they are apocalyptic
