Brain drain at U.S. Census Bureau. Sounds terrible.. 😐
NEW: Census Bureau lost over 1,000 employees through early retirement and voluntary separation offers in recent months and plans to cut some statistical work, acting Director Ron Jarmin says. "It feels a little bit like Thanos snapped his finger and a lot of your friends and colleagues went away..."

This is unfathomable. NSDUH is a critical piece of our national scientific infrastructure. So the adminstration is basically saying that it could care less about understanding substance use in this country? Really?
The entire National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) team at SAMHSA was terminated today.
Do not listen to the platitudes of this administration when they say they care about drug overdose, addiction, mental health, or suicide.
