Restore NIOSH, Fight Back Against Unlawful NIOSH Layoffs

The Trump Administration has fired 90% of the staff at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)—a devastating blow to worker health and safety nationwide.

NIOSH, a critical agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, conducts the scientific research that keeps workers safe—whether it’s designing respirators for miners, protecting firefighters from carcinogens, or ensuring commercial fishers and factory workers have safe practices and equipment.

Sign Change.org’s petition calling on Congress to “fully fund NIOSH, keep it within the CDC, and reject any budget that would erase its life-saving mission.”
