I am so proud and so thankful. Thank you Council Member @chenderson for listening to my concerns and for recognizing my efforts
Earlier this summer @SofieHamilton wrote a piece in @dcexaminer about her challenges acquiring pepper spray for self-defense purposes in DC.
Although it’s legal to posses, online retailers were not selling or delivering those items to DC addresses.
We followed up w/ Amazon.

I’ve been offline doing cool things outdoors this year! This is your periodic reminder to take a break from DC 🏔️

Instead of requiring FDA to confirm that a drug is both safe and effective (the current policy), just change FDA’s mission to focus on safety alone:
- Faster cures
- More tools for physicians and more hope for sufferers
- Longer, healthier lives
- Lower drug prices
- Lower government spending and smaller deficits
- A healthier workforce, driving a stronger and more competitive economy

Here's a simple way to DRAMATICALLY reduce drug prices and speed up new cures, with no downsides

I have lots of issues with my little city’s governance, and it turns out members of Congress do, too!
Why is Falls Church, Virginia recognizing the illegally Putin occupied FAKE country of Abkhazia — an integral part of the Republic of Georgia — as an independent country?
I hope @FallsChurchGov Mayor Letty Hardi can correct this immediately.
War Criminal Putin is not our friend.

NEW: Illinois is about to TAX @AllTrails $665,000 PER MONTH!!!! That's $8 MILLION/year. Their annual revenue is only $100 M (est). That's 8% of their revenue!!!!
This new law also taxes all other for-profit social media companies.
No I am not joking. And AllTrails is clearly in the definition.
A rough estimate via available data suggests AllTrails has 2 million users in Illinois.
A platform of this size has to pay "$165,000, plus $0.50 per month multiplied by the number of Illinois users over 1,000,000." That's $665,000!!!!
When I tried to testify on the statewide generational nicotine ban bill in Massachusetts last summer, the committee conveniently ran out of time to hear the vast majority of the opposition
This Post is from a suspended account. Learn more
Thankfully, we had plenty of time to hear from all of the people in favor of the ban who made the ridiculous claim that nicotine is as addictive as heroin

This hearing led me to film this video with clips of some of the outrageous things the supporters were saying ⬇️

Is nicotine as addictive as heroin!? 🚭
Anti-tobacco activists love to throw this line around, so I went to find the truth 🔎
SPOILER ALERT: The answer is NO

Testifying on behalf of @AfpOhio in support of HB795.
@AFPhq @SofieHamilton was here back in February testifying on the rapid growth , need for reform and potential for fraud waste abuse in the system.
Appreciate #BuckeyeBlueprint champions @JoshWilliamsOH & @mikedovilla for leading the charge on reforms exposed by @lukerosiak that are shining light on needed changes in a program consuming over half the state GRF budget.
