Join in marching against:
- dangerous de-regulation of AI and energy production
- executive overreach suppressing academic freedom and stifling scientific progress
- the Trump administration's attacks against immigrants and temporary foreign residents such as refugees, researchers, and students
- degradation of our democracy through Trumpism and its weaponization of misinformation and disinformation
- the constitutional crises triggered by the Trump administration's executive overreach, SCOTUS's endorsement, and congressional inaction all steering the US towards a collapse into authoritarian autocracy
