NEW ACTION ALERT: Write to Congress TODAY about the Need to Protect Government Data
Since January, government data sources have begun disappearing from federal agency websites, including at the National Science Foundation, U.S. Census Bureau, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services, and Department of Justice, among others. While some data have since been restored, many remain unavailable and the Trump Administration’s plans regarding the availability of government data and statistics remain uncertain.
The social and behavioral science community understands well that the research enterprise, government officials, businesses, and other sectors rely on accurate, unbiased public data—data that must remain free from political interference.
Write to your Members of Congress TODAY to express your concern about the recent removal of important federal data sources from government websites and urge them to take action to restore it.
