About

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are not directly mentioned in the provided articles. However, Article 1 discusses the Federal Judicial Center, an agency that advises the U.S. Supreme Court and federal judges on scientific and technical matters. This agency's recent withdrawal of climate change content from a judicial reference manual is newsworthy. Republican state attorneys general pressured the Federal Judicial Center, leading to the removal of information intended to help judges evaluate evidence related to climate change. This development leaves judges without official guidance on climate science, raising concerns about how climate-related cases will be adjudicated. Article 2 discusses misinformation in nature, but does not relate to the National Academies.
