FASEB Advocacy Toolkit
FASEB Capitol Hill Day
Every year, FASEB hosts Capitol Hill Day, where scientists and advocates from 22 scientific societies visit Capitol Hill to urge their senators and representatives to provide sustainable and predictable federal funding for scientific research.
Make Your Voice Heard
FASEB represents more than 110,000 scientists through collaborative advocacy with constituent societies. Help us amplify the impact of our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill by taking action in your home state/community.
Advocacy at Home
You do not need to come to Washington to be an effective advocate! Members of the House and Senate will be home for the entire month of August 2025. This is an ideal time for constituents to contact their elected officials to share concerns about how actions pending in Congress will affect their state/district.
Use FASEB’s August Recess Advocacy Toolkit to communicate with your elected officials to urge them to support increased funding for research.
