Language in the Senate CR passed last night: "the notice of proposed rulemaking entitled "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance," published in the Federal Register on May 29, 2026, or any substantially similar rule, shall not be issued or finalized." Essential to keep presseaure on the House!

NIH has lost more than 20% of its staff. NIH has lost 1 in every 5 workers. This undermines the NIH mission. @27unihted.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/27unihte...

In a new The Hill piece, SDB’s Carole LaBonne explains why Congress must block OMB’s proposed rewrite of federal grant rules and what’s at stake for U.S. research. Read the article: buff.ly/4qtOMbh

Congress must stop the politicization of peer review and American science

American scientific leadership was built by allowing evidence to prevail over ideology.

I explained in The Hill just how essential it is for congress to block OMB’s sweeping rewrite of federal grant rules. Please flag for your representatives and insist they block these rule changes that would devastate the US scientific research enterprise thehill.com/opinion/cong...

Some rare good news: the House Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies (LHHS) Subcommittee met this morning and approved a bill that strongly supports NIH. The subcommittee rejected the proposed cuts and recommended funding levels 1.35% above its FY26 recommendation.

House Appropriations markup of the FY27 Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (CJS) bill calls for a 17% cut to NASA Science, 9% cut to NASA Space Technology, a 10% cut to NSF, and an 11% cut to NOAA. Call your reps and ask them to support science.

@LaBonneLaB @labonnelab.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

I think the way to more accurately rephrase is that Science shouldm't be POLITICIZED (defending science against politicization is NOT political)

@LaBonneLaB @labonnelab.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

It is very important that people contact CSR and loudly protest this. And not just current study section members. Tell them in no uncertain terms that this will make you unwilling to serve going forward

As a grantee and study section member I urge CSR to restore discussion of 50% of applications. At 33% - one unfavorable score can push a strong grant out. For resubmission - panel feedback is essential! @altnih4science.bsky.social @jeremymberg.bsky.social #CSR #NIH @drugmonkey.bsky.social RTpls!

American science has been the envy of the planet since World War II but it has recently gone into decline. The Trump administration vandalized US scientific institutions, suspended research grants in bulk and put entire lines of cutting-edge research on ice. www.theatlantic.com/science/2026...
