It may be worth trying to get to a state that'll be likely to try to fight this nonsense if you're not already in one. I'm sure that's something you've already thought about, but.. this just makes it more dire.

I have to hold out hope that we can protect people to some degree at the state level.

yeah, I live in Washington state, so I'm covered there. though, I'm not exactly enthused about my life depending on politicians deciding not to capitulate. thankfully, we bucked the trend this election and actually went more left.

I'm seriously considering leaving the country. It's a hard path, so I don't know how doable it would be.
