On January 2, 2013, automatic cuts ("sequestration") will take place unless
Congress and the Administration take steps to prevent them.
Please consider signing on to a letter urging Congress to avoid a January
budget sequestration, which would have dramatic negative impacts on U.S.
domestic programs, including science and education.
The letter was developed by the Ecological Society of America, the American
Institute of Biological Sciences and the American Mathematical Society and asks
that Congress devise a bipartisan solution to addressing the nation's debt
crisis and avoid draconian cuts that will hurt the economy and the nation's
future, and do nothing to stave off the fiscal crisis.
