The March for Science Mission:
"The March for Science champions robustly funded and publicly communicated science as a pillar of human freedom and prosperity. We unite as a diverse, nonpartisan group to call for science that upholds the common good and for political leaders and policy makers to enact evidence based policies in the public interest."

Thank you to all of the Field participants who helped make this video possible, and to the March for Science for supporting this message. :)
Oh, and to Gavin (and his Mom; thanks, Gavin's Mom!) for excitedly volunteering to be our first testimony for the day.
