«A national synthetic biology organization could convene scientists and stakeholders from commercial entities, philanthropy, academia, and government to discuss
policy, develop regulation,
prioritize the development of tools and fundamental research, engage the public on
education and ethical
issues and create infrastructure.»
The national group, Alliance to Reclaim Our Schools,
issued a statement explaining: «As public schools are increasingly threatened by a view of
education that supports privatization, zero - tolerance discipline
policies, less funding, and high - stakes standardized tests, AROS is fighting back with a broad vision of American public
education that
prioritizes racial justice, equity and well - resourced, world - class, public community schools.»
