Jack,



I’m reaching out with urgent news. As I write to you, the Trump
administration ismoving to immediately dismantle the National Science
Foundation’s National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), one of the
nation’s leading weather and climate research institutions.



Congress must step in right now to stop this dangerous action and protect
NCAR. Tell Congress to act immediately >>

For nearly sixty years, NCAR has been at the forefront of earth science
research,
strengthening the weather and climate predictions that we all rely on. NCAR’s
work enables air quality monitoring, forecasts of droughts and extreme
precipitation events, commercial flight air turbulence research, and improved
hurricane intensity and associated flood risk forecasts—the kind of events we
are experiencing more often and with greater severity.



In other words, Jack, NCAR helps keep us safe and helps us prepare for
disasters.



Yet Russell Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and
Budget, hasalready confirmed plans to close the center’s main laboratory in
Boulder, Colorado, and dismantle its integrated and collaborative work,
fragmenting its benefits. This decision undermines decades of scientific
research and leaves our nation vulnerable.



That’s why it’s so important that you join us in telling Congress to stop this
attack on science and protect NCAR now >>

Once again, this anti-science administration is threatening to take a hatchet
to scientific research, burying evidence of climate change while advancing a
fossil fuel agenda, and introducing major risks to public safety and well-being.
But we can do something to stop it.



Join the thousands of Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) supporters who have
already taken action to demand Congress halt these destructive actions today >>
