It’s Long COVID Awareness Day. While the worst of the pandemic is over for most, there’s more we must do to educate people about Long COVID and ensure that those in our communities who are struggling get the help they need. That's why I will keep working to pass my bipartisan Long COVID Support Act.

reupping this to say there’s a special place in hell for people who charge to 100% when other people are waiting for chargers

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
