Report gov shutdown experiences to UCS
Union of Concerned Scientists
We are looking for specifics that communicate the true cost of this (and every subsequent) shutdown. Wed like to know how your work has been disrupted, both during the shutdown and in preparation for it. Federal employees, contractors, and grant recipientsas well as users of government servicescan reach out through our Science Protection Project. By going through that project, you can be as anonymous as you like.
...
Be as specific as you can. What projects are suffering? Where are they located? What are the lost benefits? What are the consequences for research and communities? And what impact do repeated shutdowns have on productivity and morale?
