[1]Mark Kelly for Senate
Team —
Within the first month of Trump’s presidency it became clear that Elon Musk intended to use DOGE to gut the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and within it the National Weather Service. And that Trump would let him do it.
For what possible reason, I don’t know.
For 50 years the NWS has provided forecasting and weather warnings 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That coverage has never stopped, until now. Thanks to Trump, Elon, and DOGE, countless NWS offices around the country no longer have the staff to cover overnight shifts.
So, what happens when a massive, dangerous weather system hits overnight? We learned last Friday.
Tornadoes hit Kentucky. At any other time the NWS office responsible would’ve been closed. Fortunately, the meteorologists at the NWS are more dedicated and professional than DOGE — they caught the weather in advance, stuck to their posts, and did their jobs.
That’s what public servants do, and hundreds of thousands of good people continue to serve even after all of the hurdles DOGE put in front of them. But what’s clear is that Trump and his Administration are making their jobs unnecessarily difficult, and they are putting American lives at unnecessary risk.
Too much damage has already been done, but it is not too late to reverse course.
Please, add your name and tell the Trump Administration to fire Elon Musk, stop this DOGE disaster, and restore the staff and services they are working so hard to destroy.

This has to happen before they put more lives at risk.
Thanks for your help,
Mark
