It is very early days, but I have written two draft submissions to allow safer and more affordable #MissingMiddle homes in #Virginia which I intend to submit for public consideration next month as soon as that becomes possible. Thanks to bsky.app/profile/stephenjacobs for doing the work at the national level to make this much more possible here. #BuildingCodeReform

@helenczerski Imperative that we #standupforscience every day. Every #federal agency every #university. Not a once and done protest on a sunny Friday. That was a great start. Now we need the campaign. Awareness interest decision action.

From a #Farm family and #conservation landscape designer in #virginia. Formerly marketing advertising and strategy for mnc corporate brands.

A campaign, y’all. Let’s get this done.

This is just one university, losing nearly a billion dollars in project funding pretty much overnight. That's people's jobs, and the research that could save lives. https://www.wsj.com/health/healthcare/johns-hopkins-federal-funding-foreign-aid-cut-ca841d31?st=EJYFJk&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink #America #science
