Summary
The article warns that a 412-page proposal from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), issued May 29th, uses Trumpian attacks on "woke" policies buried in bureaucratic language to threaten the future of US scientific research. The rule change to federal financial assistance could fundamentally disrupt how research is funded and conducted in America, affecting not just scientists but every community across the country. The author argues there is still time to fight this regulatory change.

· 3 pulledEveryone will be affected, not just scientists. Every community in the country.
The language is a combination of distinctly Trumpian attacks on 'woke' policies and boring governmentese designed to make your eyes glaze over as quickly as possible.
But under phrases like 'providing further clarification on the regulatory status of the OMB requirements' is something darker — a threat to scientific research in this country.
