Take Your Message to Congress

When advocating for science, your message must be clearly presented, evidence-based and compelling to nonscientists. 海角直播鈥檚 Public Policy and Advocacy team has created the following guides to help you communicate with Congress.

Factsheets

We have developed several factsheets designed for you to share with a non-scientific audience, such as policymakers and government officials, and to augment formal requests for science policy and funding. If you have any questions about these factsheets, please email advocacy@asmusa.org.
