"The Open Science Movement is a move in the right direction and one with tremendous potential benefit to society. These benefits are widely recognized and endorsed by the scientific community and others who strive to make science accessible, transparent and publicly disclosed. But the Secret Science Reform Act and the EPA Science Advisory Board Reform Act fall short of moving us toward the aspirations of the Open Science Movement. Rather, these two House bills are likely to impede efforts to use science to inform decisions related to human health and well-being and close the door on some of the science and input most needed to support the EPA's decision-making and regulatory processes." — Amanda Rodewald, director of conservation science, Lab of Ornithology
