I love a portable rice cooker that I can slip into my backpack and carry anywhere.
I believe that a good meal can be made quickly with just a rice cooker.
Arguably, the biggest part of having good meals and excellent ingredients comes from having a functional public health system.
You don’t want to end up eating something that can land you in a hospital.
You don’t want policies that can create another barrier towards access to food.
Policies are shaped not just by the federal government, but also by state and local governments.
That’s why I recommend that you vote in all elections — federal, state, and local — every single time.
Your vote as well as the votes of your neighbors, family, and friends together will get to decide who will be sitting at those public offices.
These public offices, in turn, will get to decide what resources your community should have and how they will be spent.
