I wanted to break down yesterday's Senate Appropriations medical research hearing & why matters to so many of us individually & as a community. And most importantly, the opening to work with bipartisan Hill leaders on #LongCOVID research funding. Let's decide to keep contending for all of us. 3/3

BlueSky still only allows short videos, so had to cut into 3 chunks & generate new caption files for accessibility for each video, so took more spoons than I had yesterday after being on The Hill! I know many folks in our community not on Twitter, so wanted to share some encouragement here too. 2/x

If you also need a #LongCOVID dose of hope, a message from Washington DC. Thanks from @lccampaign.bsky.social to every patient & advocate who brought our community to the Hill yesterday. Working together across the aisle, Sen. Collins & @murray.senate.gov opened a door for US patients & families 1/x
