Decline and Fall: Disaster Ahead for US Government

Science magazine reports that “When US voters head to the polls on 4 November, they are poised to set in motion a major political shift that promises to intensify partisan strife over issues such as climate change, immigration and research funding.

Read US midterm elections offer little hope for science.
