I asked Trump’s science advisor if the non-binding “ratepayer protection pledge” has helped with rising energy costs due to data centers.

Straight answers matter.

Today, I pressed the President’s Science Advisor in a @ScienceDemocrats committee hearing for accountability after inconsistent testimony about whether officials at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy are involved in NSF grant decisions.

The American people deserve transparency, not evasive answers. I’ll keep pushing back on the administration’s anti-science agenda. by @repsalinas

Questioned another Trump official today. President Trump said companies could only get federal microchip funding if they were run by transgender people. That's simply false. When I asked his own official about it, they couldn't defend it. by @repsalinas

🚨HAPPENING SOON- Full Committee Hearing with @whostp47 Director Kratsios titled "Unleashing the Golden Age of Science: Examining the Priorities of the FY2027 Research and Technology Enterprise."

That title is stunningly ironic, as this Administration is systematically destroying U.S. science, while our allies and adversaries alike look on astonished.

Hearing starts at 10:15 am ET -- tune in on our website (linked in bio)! by @repsalinas

You may not know this, but space is getting more crowded every year! With thousands more satellites headed to orbit, we need to make sure they can operate safely.

During our @ScienceDemocrats hearing, I highlighted why improving space traffic coordination is so important. Preventing collisions protects our satellites, reduces dangerous debris, and helps ensure the United States remains the global leader in space. taken in US Capitol Building by @repsalinas

Today, the @thenasem released a report titled, "Attribution of Extreme Weather and Climate Events and Their Impacts."

The report, according to @thenasem, "provides a comprehensive assessment of the current capabilities of extreme event attribution (EEA) — a scientific field that analyzes whether and to what extent human-caused climate change influenced an individual extreme weather event, such as a specific heat wave or hurricane." by @repsalinas
