First off, I hope that everyone in the household is safe and healthy. By now you’ve probably received a lot of emails about resources and FAQs about the coronavirus pandemic.

Just in case you need those links again - at the bottom of this email is a compilation of the top things to know and have available. If you are a first responder, military personnel, a health care worker, government staff, or a frontline retail worker providing vital services and supplies right now, thank you. It is in times like these that you show your immense value to our communities and nation. Thank you.

If you are like me, you’ve been social distancing for days now, staying at home, except to go out for a dog walk or a run, and will probably be in this situation for weeks to come. In the spirit of providing all-around resources for the whole person, here are a few that I think you might enjoy.

Sincerely,

- Ted

P.S. You might imagine that campaign fundraising has also taken quite a downturn.

Help us continue to push for change at all levels, from the top of the ticket all the way down to the local County Commission. Thank you!
