say it again: 4 million people work in higher ed, the largest employer in 10 states, second largest employer in 10 more, and in 60 of the 100 biggest cities ROI for NIH and NSF for local economies is conservatively 4x, often close to 10x demolishing higher education is economic sabotage

With mRNA and CRISPR this country could be entering a scientific heyday and instead we’re torching the institutions that make it all possible.

Poll: weekly, more than 90% of ppl use weather forecasts, job market reports, food safety warnings, & other info based on fed sci. But only *10%* concerned cuts to fed support for science might impact their access to that info. 🛟📈🧪 Policysky sociology

Most Americans frequently use federal science information. But few are concerned that cuts to federal science spending could affect their access to such information, a new poll finds.

*whispers* Two $70,000,000 fighter jets fell off a navy ship in the past two weeks. But 24/7 weather monitoring across the US is considered “wasteful”. The math ain’t mathin

This is what we are talking about when we say NIH funding saves lives. Specifically these researchers stepped in created a therapy that may well save this child's life. It is amazing. This is what is at stake. If NIH goes away, we lose all of this, for at least a generation.

HAPPY TAX DAY! How much would you spend on a year of tornado warnings? The average US taxpayer spends only $4 a year to help fund the NWS. It’s a smart investment—every $1 invested in NWS yields approx. $73 in social benefits. 🌪️❄️ Support science. Support the NWS. Stay tuned for more this #TaxDay
