Speaking w/ cannabis industry folks a couple weeks ago, SQ820 came up a lot. Businesses that are really struggling right now were hoping it would pass & bring add<U+2019>l consumers/more $. But this gov<U+2019>s admin, which likes to call itself pro-business, has chosen to hurt them instead.

The original @ClarityCoffee is in my district, as is their new roastery, & even though their new shop in @votealonso<U+2019>s district, I had to try it now that it<U+2019>s open! Southsiders: the coffee here is just as hot as it is on the northside & the pastries are <U+0001F44D><U+0001F3FC>.Support local business! https://t.co/OUzZK2HyMW

My latest effort to make insurance not as awful as it tends to be. I don<U+2019>t talk about my other work here often, but this is it, and I hope you<U+2019>ll consider using Hopewell if you<U+2019>re in need of help navigating the protection racket that is insurance. https://t.co/6c1wXOBbeo
