Dear UUP Rapid Responders,
Join our fellow higher ed unionists as we demand that Congress preserve funding for scientific research in the upcoming Federal budget. See all of the details below!
Register to join a national phonebank to protect science funding on September 5th!
We have had major successes fighting back against the federal government’s attacks on science and higher education together with academic workers across the country. But our fight is not over. The Trump Administration has proposed devastating cuts to NIH funding, and we have a critical window in which to act before the 2026 federal budget gets approved.
In order to prevent any cuts to scientific research, we are continuing to leverage the nationwide movement we’ve built to pressure officials in both political parties. Our ability to win more depends on showing our elected officials that we are all united in the fight to save science. The more of us who participate, the stronger our message will be.
On September 5, at 12pm PT/3pm ET, higher ed workers across the country will call representatives in Congress to demand NO CUTS to science funding in the federal budget. Fill out this form to join the phonebank.
In Solidarity,
Andrew Little
President, UAW 4100
