Kirana Bergstrom was among a mass of NOAA researchers the Trump admin fired last week.
Hundreds met in front of her former office building in Boulder this morning to protest the firings.

Thinking of the many hard-working and skilled federal employees fired today from the NWS. Your contributions over the years have helped the NWS and its ability to fulfill its mission of protecting life & property. This is a loss for the NWS and for the nation.
