The folk at the head of the current administration don't care about such
statements. But perhaps others who can effect change might.
And yes, the ACM text is quite reasonable.
I suggest trying to get a /collection/ of related organizations to issue
a joint text, with the goal of suggesting the aggregate damage that will
accrue if "freedom of movement, association, expression and
communication for scientists" is not permitted.
That is, build on the ACM effort, getting ISOC, W3C, IEEE, and more to
sign it jointly.
