What are some ways of getting more involved, should you have the time and interest?

If you’re into writing, you can try your hand at op-eds and letters to the editor and support your writing with social media posts. This may be of particular value if you have professional credibility to back up your arguments. For example, a nurse, doctor, or health insurance specialist writing about the moral Right to control our healthcare decisions carries more weight than if someone outside the profession writes about it. And students posting to a popular online forum about their and their parents’ rights to be in control of their education are more likely to get attention than if someone without a direct stake in the game does it. And if writing is not your thing, perhaps posting videos on YouTube or TikTok, or creating a Facebook page, or retweeting other people’s writings, is more up your alley.

Finally, if you want to kick it up another notch, other types of activism available to you include supporting or joining advocacy groups, trying to influence a political party from within, attending and asking questions at candidate Town Hall meetings, volunteering for a candidate, or running for office.
