As a former county chair (although lacking the blue hair), I can vouch for this.

This is also why we ask for wool socks! And it's not just about frost bite, don't Google trench foot if you have a sensitive stomach, but trust that wool is a great way to address at least some of that.
Do this locally in your area, too! Waterproof in mittens and boots is key: if fingers and toes get wet, they might not get dry again
We are now also low on snow boots, I think probably 40 pairs went out today!

The hard truth is that right now, our Secretary of Health is one of our nation’s biggest health threats and largest sources of health disinformation.
Realistically, we need RFK Jr. to be FIRED. At a minimum, he needs to answer to Congress for his attacks on public health.

Washington Republicans will be entirely to blame if healthcare premiums jump. Extending ACA credits would prevent huge price hikes. The American people know who has been fighting to protect and strengthen healthcare, and who has been trying to kneecap the ACA for 15 years.
