@susancollinscon.bsky.social Please resist all cuts to NIH and NSF. Future therapies for common and uncommon diseases will be postponed for years!

We must preserve the freedoms of our citizens and universities. What is being done to research is catastrophic and may not be possible to fix. We must stand up to this administration!!

Let’s hope that the fact that ‘Sovereignty’ won the Kentucky Derby doesn’t encourage Trump to think it’s a sign confirming HIS sovereignty!

We must convince Congress NOT to cut NIH and NSF!! Trump’s proposed cuts will cripple our science and the development of new therapies. This is NOT a partisan issue.

@susancollinscon.bsky.social Please stand up for funding of the National Institutes of Health! Medical advances are nonpartisan and large cuts will seriously compromise our ability to bring forth new therapies quickly!
