Late Wednesday night, an email went out to members of the AFGE Local 3403 union representing employees at NSF collecting signatures for the so-called Alexandria Declaration, highlighting ā€œcatastrophic changesā€ to the agency ā€œand the scientific enterprise of the United States over the last 6 months.ā€

ā€œAt this critical moment in our shared history, we hope to catalyze a level of public awareness and subsequent action that will preserve NSF and the values it upholds,ā€ the email reads, noting that the effort was inspired by the Bethesda Declaration.

    I want Bethesda to make a declaration that they’ll hire 100 new people to work on fallout 5.

    Beyond that joke, I don’t really have a lot of hope for science in America’s future.
