21 million Americans are not connected to the internet, leaving them especially vulnerable during natural disasters, unable to access live-saving info.
Social justice, environmental justice, and climate justice are all digital justice. Read more >>

Just the end of last year, NIH published RFI on the change of its review process (grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/… ). Today, partially as a response to that, we are publishing a policy memo on enabling faster funding timelines within @NIH and its institutes: dayoneproject.org/ideas/enab… 0/n

Glad to see @POTUS including digital mental health within the White House mental health research priorities. With @Day1Project I wrote a policy pitch on building a national infrastructure for digital mental health: dayoneproject.org/ideas/crea… feel free to take any ideas!

Every year, the President lays out his policy priorities in the #StateOfTheUnion address. We believe science and technology should be a core part of the administration's agenda. Here are our policy priorities for 2023, the 118th Congress, and beyond.

Sometimes progress is easier than we think — if we use amazing #policy tools already available to us. Proud to present my proposal for how @NIST can quarterback Federal #innovation for the #bioindustry we deserve.
🙏 to @Day1Project and @FAScientists for support and sharing!
Rapid progress in strengthening American bioindustry is possible, but it demands a coordinated and concerted effort that taps the federal government’s unique combination of scale and highly effective lab-to-market incentive mechanisms.

Greenhouse gas emissions are increasing so rapidly that climate disaster is imminent. As America's clean energy transformation proceeds, there is one energy technology up for the test all these sectors-geothermal.

Now more than ever, children need—and deserve—access to a well-rounded and high-quality education. The U.S. Department of Education has an incredible opportunity to support our youth to succeed and thrive. bit.ly/3Qur3SU

To start out, let it be said that Congress needs to provide sustained funding for federal R&D programs, including those authorized in CHIPS and Science.
Many agencies fared reasonably well in the FY 2023 omnibus, but still were quite short of CHIPS targets - especially NSF.

OK, onto the memos:
It's critical to connect research, innovation, and production, and few initiatives do this as well as Manufacturing USA (@MFGUSA). Here, Bill Bonvillian lays out a raft of options for enhancing the network's reach and impact. dayoneproject.org/ideas/ensu…

Congress has lately worked with agencies to foster novel research institutions. Here are ideas for more.
First, from Arika Virapongse, a course of action for NSF to support independent scholars through funding, partnerships, and professional development. dayoneproject.org/ideas/broa…

Second, from @SGRodriques & @AdamMarblestone, a blueprint for focused research organizations (FROs) - independent research teams organized like a startup, producing tools or techniques that enhance scientific productivity across disciplines. dayoneproject.org/ideas/focu…

National labs are lynchpins in our science and innovation ecosystem. Here, @bdarmody and Richard Bendis suggest legislation to enhance the labs' ability to enter partnerships and transfer technology, using similar tools deployed by universities. dayoneproject.org/ideas/the-…

From @LAJump, @MackKolarich and @elbrooksshehata: government can building on recent progress in advanced technology innovation by creating a DeepTech Capital Fund, leveraging research and investment dollars to boost U.S. competitiveness. dayoneproject.org/ideas/crea…

Space! We can and should be doing much more in space.
Lyndsey Gray tells us how we can clear the way, with a multifaceted strategy - including an advanced market commitment and improved satellite design - to deal with orbital debris. dayoneproject.org/ideas/taki…

Last one, and it's a good one: Roesler, Thronson, @SciAstro, Parrish, & Mukherjee suggest a public-private consortium to accelerate U.S. capabilities in the growing in-space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing (ISAM) sector. dayoneproject.org/ideas/adva…

Check out the full menu of ideas here: fas.org/pub-reports/118th-co…
It's up to agencies to implement many of these ideas, but Congress can help guide the way through legislation, funding, and leadership.

For the @The74, I wrote about an exciting new education research initiative hidden in the Omnibus.
This has the ingredients to be the beginning of something very big.
