SAVE SCIENCE, SAVE LIVES    President Trump, and his anti-science allies who want to implement Project 2025, are waging an all-out war on science and scientists.   His cabinet members and advisors are loyalists committed to rolling back science-based safeguards that protect public health and the environment. He and his staff are already working with corporate polluters to intimidate scientists and sideline science, endangering communities, people, and the planet.   UCS is prepared. Please join us as we mobilize science supporters, scientists, and experts in signing an open letter asking Congress to stand up against attempts to politicize or eliminate scientific roles, agencies, and federal research that protect our health, environment, and our communities.  With your help we will fight these political attacks on government scientists and experts, stop suppression of scientific research, and defend against other anti-science action in the Project 2025 agenda.  When science and scientists are sidelined, people get hurt—join the tens of thousands of people who have signed the open letter.  This letter is open to all US residents, at home or abroad.

If you agree this is nuclear insanity, please sign my petition: No more tax dollars for nuclear weapons modernization, starting with the B61.

Support the City of Portland Public School budget by voting to increase the school budget by at least 1.2% for the next fiscal year! If we cut the proposed budget, more children in the city will experience what students at Reiche and Riverton faced this year: very large classes with 25 or more students. Support Portland's schools and smaller class sizes by voting in favor of the Board of Education's proposed budget.

The Green New Deal is a national economic mobilization plan much like Roosevelt's "New Deal" and is capable of making the U.S. economy “carbon neutral” while promoting economic and environmental justice and equality. Please make the "Green New Deal" a priority of the 116th Congress.
