'We dissent': NASA staff declare opposition to Trump cuts
Briefly

More than 280 NASA employees, including four astronauts, signed a declaration against drastic changes proposed by President Trump. The declaration warns that these changes threaten human safety, scientific progress, and NASA's global leadership. It details rapid and wasteful changes undermining NASA's mission and causing harm to its workforce. Similar protests have arisen from other federal agencies, highlighting a wider dissent against Trump's overhaul of the federal government, involving mass firings and budget cuts. The purpose of the declaration is to publicly express opposition to these significant changes and their impacts.
The last six months have seen rapid and wasteful changes which have undermined our mission and caused catastrophic impacts on NASA's workforce.
This is not OK. Employees want to make the public aware of the negative impacts Trump's policies are having at NASA.
