Research universities are often the largest employers in their region. They are often the primary health care providers to communities. This funding shift will not only reduce US research leadership, it will put working people out of work and reduce healthcare access.
Excellent 🧵 on this evening's NIH announcement of a dramatic reduction in indirect rates for research institutions, which amounts to a generational restructuring of the US research and development ecosystem. These cuts are effective immediately, not just for new grants but for existing ones.

For a large university, this creates a sudden and catastrophic shortfall of hundreds of millions of dollars against already budgeted funds.

I'm going too long here but the point is folks being silenced, harassed, etc in spaces claiming to be part of the public sphere is not new; folks leaving to create their own alternative spaces for deliberation is not new; this is the reality of public struggles over communication, power & difference
