Quarantine for 14 days.

Like the experts keep telling us, the virus doesn’t care which party you’re with, or how admirable your reasons are. It doesn’t give you a pass because your job function is important.

If you must be at work in person in DC within 2 weeks, you have to forego the trip to Atlanta. Attend by ZOOM. Millions of Americans have been faced with that uncomfortable choice when suffering loss these last several months. There were extensive memorials in DC - most of us don’t get multiple chances like that when we lose someone.

Do you really think this is consistent with John Lewis’ legacy? The only valid rebuttal is that these right wing echo chamber outlets aren’t giving the entire story. But I haven’t seen any indication of that.
