In New York City, for example, we have these community health boards. And I've met with a bunch of them over the last several years during the pandemic to educate them. These are concerned citizens who are really trying to do what they can to make their communities healthier. And yes, that, again, takes time. It takes lots of people. But that's where you can have a very tangible impact.

So that's really the level at which I would encourage people. The powers are there. These are really kitchen table concerns people have. Like it's what's happening, I don't know, with pollution near the school where your kids goes to school. It's what's happening with gun violence in your neighborhood. It's the opioid overdoses.

You know, your neighbors, you're talking about so-and-so lost their son. These are things that are very tangible to people where you can get involved. And it doesn't have to be a partisan thing.
