You think I haven't researched this myself, with my family history?
I've read enough of your posts to determine you want to make it a race issue.
wow... 75%?
I understand the sentiment. But leaving the country is not for me

"The trend was particularly pronounced among early-career researchers. Of the 690 postgraduate researchers who responded, 548 were considering leaving; 255 of 340 PhD students said the same."
The funding cut probably affects their stipend/salary? Pretty vague poll with unanswered questions

Sure. At best it’s some sort of an indicator, but in general not the direction we want to go as a nation. Our educational emphasis nationwide on science and engineering in the late 50s and early 60s rocketed us to the forefront of the world, among other things.Be curious to see how many are US citizens.

I remember working in pharma in the 90s and the company acquired rights to one of the early morning after pills.
There were organized protests by many antiabortion scientists (myself NOT included), protesting the decision...
because many scientists were religious, conservative, and right leaning back then. GOP politicians were pro science, back then. They had not yet declared all of science to be part of some liberal conspiracy of woke indoctrination.

Good article…we hear a lot about Big Pharma. How much is positive? How much should be positive?
A Federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order restoring the antiviral pandemic preparedness grants for one month.
There's no guarantee of any continued funding, even an ability to spend what was already allocated to us that we saved through our frugality, but at least we can cover the salaries of all of the young PhD scientists that we are having to fire next month

Aren't all of them currently employed by universities across the country?
They are University employees but are on research fellowships, paid entirely from grants obtained by the lab head. When grant funds are insufficient, they must be terminated. Different Universities provide different amounts of "bridge funding" to get you through down times.
A Research Professor is a fairly stressful job with regard to securing funding. I submitted over 10 grant applications last year alone, to federal & state programs and to various private foundations. I'm hoping that a few of them "hit" and that antivirals grants are not canned even before they are reviewed, since half of those have something to do with studying and developing antiviral drugs (non-COVID viral diseases of pandemic concern). I have been fully funded for 15 years and this is the lowest point.
My postdocs? No. Me, yes.
But even a tenured Research Professor must pay most of his or her salary from grants. 90%, though less at places where you can teach more, with a large undergraduate student body.
If a tenured Research Professor can't get funds and bridge funds of 6 mo. to a year from the University run out, he/she isn't fired but goes to part time status, with salary reduction. If funds stay at zero or near zero, indeed you are asked to leave. It happens.
