A red flyer with the words โ€œscientists against ice. Stand up for science calls for a general strike 1/23/26 Minnesota. Mobilize the fight for science and democracyโ€

Stand Up for Science stands in solidarity with our friends, colleagues, and neighbors who are united against ICE today.

We have a moral imperative to respond to human rights abuses and to link arms in solidarity against injustice.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Iโ€™ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

Iโ€™ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but hereโ€™s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

Dear Mr. Sรถderstrรถm and Mr. Norstrรถm,

Indivisible is a national grassroots movement committed to protecting democracy and defending communities targeted by government abuse. In recent months our coalition helped organize the No Kings demonstrations, an effort that mobilized more than seven million people across the country. Our work brings together creators, organizers, and everyday people who use culture as a tool for civic participation and accountability.

It is in this spirit that we are contacting you regarding the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement recruitment ads on your platform. Spotify has acknowledged running these ads, which appear to be part of a broader effort by ICE to expand its enforcement reach through financial incentives and aggressive hiring. These campaigns are creating fear in immigrant and working-class communities and are contributing to a climate where harassment, raids, and intimidation are becoming routine.

We are concerned that Spotify's acceptance of these ads signals a willingness to allow its platform to serve as a distribution channel for government messaging that

promotes policies rooted in coercion and abuse. Spotify holds enormous cultural power, and with that comes responsibility. The listeners who turn to your platform every day expect that their engagement will not be used to advance harmful government agendas.

We would like to meet with you to discuss how Spotify can move in a different direction and take responsible action. Our recommendations include the following:

โ€ข Immediate termination of all advertising contracts with ICE and DHS,
โ€ข A public commitment to reviewing and updating Spotify's Advertising Policy to prohibit government propaganda and hate-based recruitment ad campaigns.

We believe there is a productive path forward that aligns with Spotify's stated values and the expectations of the creators and listeners who make your platform what it is. Please have your office contact us at (email address blurred out) so we can schedule a conversation with our senior leadership team as soon as possible.

Spotify has the opportunity to lead by example and reject the use of its platform to promote harmful government practices. We urge you to take this moment seriously and choose to stand with the communities that rely on your platform for expression, connection, and safety.

Sincerely,

If we would reach a degree of civilization higher and grander than any yet attained, we should welcome to our ample continent all the nations, kindreds, tongues and peoples, and as fast as they learn our language and comprehend the duties of citizenship, we should incorporate them into the American body politic. The outspread wings of the American eagle are broad enough to shelter all who are likely to come.

Trumpโ€™s EPA is continuing its illegal retaliation against employees for telling the truth in defense of our planet and the nation.

We stand with these brave employees in their fight against this retaliation.

What happens when NIH is under threat?

And long-term? We surrender our global leadership in biomedical research.

Businesses are raising prices after tariffs, even on unaffected goods This could be a sign that companies are using the new tariffs as an excuse to raise prices overall.

A "significant share" of companies surveyed by the Federal Reserve said they raised the prices of goods and services unaffected by tariffs.

One company said they did this to "enjoy the extra margin before tariffs increased their costs."
