Support the Scientific Integrity Act

Representatives Paul D. Tonko (D-NY) and Senator Brian Schatz (D-HI) have introduced the Scientific Integrity Act (H.R. 1709 and S. 775, respectively), to protect scientists and their work from political corruption.

If you want to support this legislation you can call (202) 224-3121 with your zip code to be connected to your elected officials. Or you can visit https://centerforinquiry.org/alerts/tell-congress-to-suppor-the-scientific-integrity-act/

For the few who were left their research was limited and the results were restricted from being available to the public. The fucking moron has been trying to harm and kill us from the start. Glad to see this...thanks for posting. I will call.
