I’ve spent a lot of time reading about ACT UP this year and what really moved the needle on action was realizing a million people were HIV+ and were beginning to be a significant voting bloc. An estimated 20 million people have Long COVID.

I'd love to hear a Dem podcast discuss how they plan to win back the votes of the disabled people they've left for dead the past 4 yrs. A smart party would be assessing the size of this risk to their 2024 electoral hopes. Have @PodSaveAmerica run numbers yet on this? #PodSaveJon
