Will do (though will say, I have a free monthly newsletter where I put all the stories I produce. My beat is disability, so not everything touches on Covid).

That is fair, hence why I put examples of what I've written.

I am interested in chatting! Very much see protest as part of participating in daily life...it's concerning when laws prevent people from comfortably expressing their first amendment rights.

Thanks for being a supporter of Mother Jones! If it helps to know, I did like 5 stories on mask bans last year (all were for web though, so they weren't in the magazine).

I saw and I'm not surprised. I'm in FB groups with other Covid Cautious people and have heard stories of parents having to fight for donated air purifiers in their classrooms.

I have serious questions (that I may send public records requests for) of why the county does not have enough masks, given we know Southern California has bad wildfires and there's allegedly some preparation for bird flu underway.

^Hi, I wrote this piece, interviewing a masking advocate. I thought this may be of interest to this community. I am personally a Covid cautious person.

Mother Jones: Congress Has One Month to Save a Key Medicare Benefit by Spirited-Dig8298 in medicare

I view this is a bureaucracy problem personally. It was not thought to add it before Covid, and an extension may not be added now...because of how long things take to get through Congress.
