The state and local is where most of the progress is going to happen in the next 4 years. They control a lot more than you think - even including running elections for federal office. Pay attention to all your local elections - they are going to matter a lot

EDIT: While I'm here, going to mention there are local elections in some localities across the US tomorrow (feb 25th) in parts of California, Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, & Maine

Here's a substack post with more info about those local elections

Ballot measures. Write them if your state empowers them. That’s where the democracy will happen.
