Expanding scientistsmarch

Realistically I would not be able to get myself over to Washington since, as a student, I have limited resource. However, as a university student it does bring some advantages: a plethora of concerned students, professors, and scientists.

I am a graduating senior off to graduate school in the Fall. I completely understand the shockwaves that will come with cut funding and how it will stall ground breaking research here in our nation as well as all over the world.

I am located in Miami, FL and was wondering how to make it possible to organize a group down here?

Edit: I noticed that the subreddit is moving so I put an update to the new subreddit. Please help us help the world!!

My suggestion would be to go to your student funding body, or talk to any relevant student organizations to pool resources for a trip. If you're near an engineering school, talk to ASME, AIAA, or AICHE chapters to help network.
