This fellowship supported me thru my PhD in Sociology. But it wouldn’t today. “GRFP is one of the most important fellowships for early-career scientists. If it’s now simply another way to carry out the admin’s priorities, that sends a msg to these students that maybe they aren’t welcome in science.”

Screen grab of hearing livestream that shows Senator Alsobrooks. She is wearing a cream colored blazer, a black shirt, she looks *immaculate*. The caption says “sir you are the wrong person for this job”.
RFK Jr.’s hearing has ended, so I’ll leave you with Senator Alsobrook’s statement to him, delivered in a calm and steady voice:
“Sir, you are the wrong person for this job”. 🔥
On the bright side, RFK spending efficiency is strong! CDC order to create a measles “treatment” Vitamin A, sun charged crystals & lyophilized bear brain should do the trick!
Our preventative tool is only 97% effective, saving 90 million-can’t be trusted. Excellent way to pivot canceled grant $

Wrote letters today to my Kentucky senator Rand Paul and rep Hal Roger’s -majority chair of the commerce justice science committee. A copy for every office on file. I live in CO but own land in KY, so stressed the uplifting of rural communities via my REU program and NSF PhD grants

This editorial by Professor Alondra Nelson should be read in its entirety, but the part about how DOGE is actively interfering in NSF activities is especially appalling.

🧪 Ranking member Lofgren and 11 other House dems sent a fiery 7-page letter to acting NSF director today
"The cancelation of these awards suggests instead that NSF is willing to apply political censorship of awards under direction from President Trump and the DOGE teenagers"

Here is a letter that we (2 former NSF GRFP program officers) sent to the National Science Board Fri 5/9. The NSB is the Exec Branch's lawful governing board for NSF (as opposed to DOGE).
