Stand Up for Science at Philadelphia, the original American city of science. #standupforscience # Philadelphia

Defending immigrant rights is not separate from science - Matthew Goldshore, pediatric surgeon #standupforscience #immigrantrights #philadelphia #medicine #philadelphiascienceaction #abolishice

When you attack immigrants, you attack science - Philadelphia Councilmember Jamie Gauthier #standupforscience #philadelphia #philadelphiascienceaction

If you’re an immigrant, if you’re first generation, if you’re a woman, a scientist of color, trans, or gay, you belong in science. - Maya English, PhD student, GETUP UAW #standupforscience #philadelphiascienceaction

Every dollar spent on bombs is a dollar not spent on curing disease. Every missle built is laboratory that doesn’t get built. - Todd Wolfson, AAUP #standupforscience #philadelphiascienceaction #nowar

The future of humanity should not depend on whether billionaires feel generous; it should depend on the democratic will of us - Todd Wolfson, AAUP #standupforscience #philadelphiascienceaction #taxbillionaires

This Is Our Fight: How Immigration Enforcement Threatens Science and Healthcare By Amanda Rabinowitz, Ph.D.

Decades of evidence show that immigrants make disproportionate contributions to scientific discovery and technological advancement. As of 2019, nearly one in four STEM workers in the United States was foreign-born.

Scientists cannot afford to treat this as someone else’s issue.

I need to aggiornamento Ariel on the significance of that term

Scientists Are Workers — and It’s Time We Organize By Amanda Rabinowitz Ph.D.

As individual actors, scientists are not positioned to stand up to a coordinated federal assault, but COLLECTIVELY SCIENTISTS HAVE POWER. This power comes from organization... especially unions.

Penn ‘seeks no special consideration,’ president Jameson says in response to Trump proposal Penn has until Oct. 20 to respond to the compact, which would give the Trump administration wide-ranging influence over core university operations including hiring, admissions and tuition setting.

This is an easy one, Jameson. JUST SAY NO.
