@PeteButtigieg The combination of a data-driven mindset and an empathetic soul goes a long way towards solving problems and making human lives better. You're onto something and I'm staying tuned in... Many parts of the US that are struggling economically would benefit from this approach.

@juliarebeccaj Thanks for the article. Stories about separated immigrant families are so important but so painful to read. Have you come across any particularly high impact ways for individuals to help? Organizations to donate to? Etc?
