This email just hit my inbox.
The email, which was sent by hq-nasa-inc@nasa.gov, reads: Dear agency employees, We are taking steps to close all agency DEIA offices and end all DEIA-related contracts in accordance with President Trump’s executive orders titled Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing and Initial Rescissions of Harmful Executive Orders and Actions. These programs divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination. We are aware of efforts by some in government to disguise these programs by using coded or imprecise language. If you are aware of a change in any contract description or personnel position description since November 5, 2024 to obscure the connection between the contract and DEIA or similar ideologies, please report all facts and circumstances to DEIAtruth@opm.gov within 10 days. There will be no adverse consequences for timely reporting this information. However, failure to report this information within 10 days may result in adverse consequences. Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Janet Petro

California's world-leading firefighting technology was developed at NASA JPL, where 200+ employees' homes were destroyed by the #EatonFire.

The NASA facility has partnered with @calfire.bsky.social to use soil moisture sensors to support the state's fire management & prevention efforts.
