Union of Concerned Scientists Testifies to Congress on Attacks on Science

Original: Attacks on Science, Who’s Behind Them, and Their Harm: My Congressional Testimony

The Union of Concerned Scientists has published congressional testimony examining attacks on science, who is behind them, and the damage they cause. The testimony outlines how politicised interference undermines scientific integrity and public policy, and identifies the actors and motivations driving such attacks. The organisation argues these efforts harm public health, safety and evidence-based decision-making in government.

Why now: Concerns about political interference in science and its policy consequences are a live public debate in the United States.
