Our poor economy.

It's a step to something new, but also terrible. I'm thinking of you.

Yay!! Congratulations. ❤️

Thank you for engaging in this way Gale. It is so important.

Thank you! Please talk to #AAASmtg for advice about how to adequately host a conference that meets this extraordinary moment. They weren't perfect, but I am sure you can learn from them. It cannot be business as usual at #AERA2025.

Just got back from the AAAS conference. It did not feel like business as usual. While the research sessions went as long-planned, with recognition to now-restricted data sets as needed, there were multiple new panels crafted to speak directly to this moment. #AERA needs a similar effort.

It is a false, damaging narrative that executive orders are, themselves, changes to law. They are part of a rulemaking process that can be opposed. So let's all get out there and do the work!

Executive orders give folks notice that they need to SHOW UP. When you don't agree with an executive order you need to get engaged in rulemaking. You need to support the organizations engaging in the public hearings and the organizations initiating the opposition litigation in the courts.

Executive orders are generally an indication of policy intent and a CALL to ACTION for anyone that might dissagree. Executive orders are the opening moves of one aspect of the rulemaking process and includes multiple, powerful avenues for formal opposition.

Executive orders generally CANNOT be implemented immediately. They are, in and of themselves, NOT changes to federal laws. Changing the federal regulations to implement executive orders requires time and involves a process where they can be challenged.

The changing or adding of federal regulations that is generally required before implementation of executive orders mean that there are moments for public participation, for the orders to be challenged in courts, or for the orders to be struck down by Congress.
