Want to a way to not just fight back, but build for more? Run for local office yourself. Make sure no position goes uncontested near you (runforsomething.net)

As things are more likely to fall back to the states, make sure your state is willing to fight for their rights

Don't give in to despair. Grieving is natrual, but don't let it consume you completely. When you build back up that energy, put your fury into change

Yep. I have a close family member that is a state legislator. I built their website, too. I also run other politician's websites. I know how much work and effort it takes to actually manage an official position. It's a lot and you have to sacrifice a lot. So it bugs me when people just throw that around "just run for office, then" like it's no big deal.
