🚨 A proposed policy would reclassify career civil servants as political appointees, fundamentally altering how the government, and science, works.
TAKE ACTION!
You can submit a public comment to stop this by May 23rd ⬇️

UPDATE: We have data on >1000 terminated #NSF grants at grant-watch.us. Thanks to all who have been contributing data the past few days.
We've also added a "Reports" section with some analyses. For NSF, we see that the STEM education directorate has been absolutely pummeled.
