Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Nearly 1 in 10 U.S. adults identify as LGBTQ, Gallup survey finds The percentage of U.S. adults who identify as LGBTQ or something other than heterosexual increased to 9.3%, from 7.6% in 2023.

Almost 10% of US adults identifies as #LGBTQ+. And gen Z is pushing 25%. No wonder he’s trying to both divide us and eliminate some of us. As they say—there’s power in numbers—but we gotta stick together ❤️

NIH review sections and council meetings still cancelled through a loophole effectively halting the NIH's ability to award any new grants! This will have severely negative effects on research, science and health!

Wondering why there are no study sections and Institute Council meetings? Well, such meetings need to be put on the Federal Register 15 days prior to the meeting. And the Federal Register has not allowed any entries since January 21. This is the reason no grants are being reviewed or approved.

In a brazen & illegal move, the Trump admin is working to freeze federal funding passed into law.

The law is the law—Trump must immediately reverse course, follow the requirements of the law, & ensure the nation’s spending laws are implemented as Congress intended.
