Today's federal workforce massacre was at NSF. Time to push back. Find state-specific stats on NSF funding at bit.ly/NSF_bystate & call your reps. De-funding science hurts us all—our health, economy & future.

Colleagues, including my partner, with years of service at the agency. Some Permanent POs reclassified as Probationary. Exceptional scientists who were former professors at major institutions, and came to NSF to serve the community and ensure science thrives in the US.
