This is Scientific American a publication that has 3.5 Million subscribers at $34.99 and it is the oldest continuously published monthly magazine in the United States. Not your average rag paper. It has an incredibly high Impact Factor (if you believe in those).
It is better if every scientific organization remain non-political. Does that mean that every person has to put their biases away, ideally yes, but that is unrealistic. But an official statement backing one side vs another is terrible no matter what the opinion is.
