The assassin also appears to have had use of a police car. Decent chance its a cop from another agency or jurisdiction.

Not sure what the evidence is, but the police gave a press conference saying so

IRA = US Inflation Reduction Act, a major piece of climate legislation

They’re taking on the attitudes of the Trump administration which just announced:

We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city.

• Call your congressional representative and senators. Hearing from constituents, even ones they disagree with, tends to push congressmembers towards the right thing a little bit.
• Organize locally, with people in your community. Showing that you’ve got people who are organized around an issue is much more powerful than individuals calling on their own; this tends to suggest that people will vote as a bloc for change, which is a big deal for elected officials.
• Reach out to people whose lives are impacted by research. Think of for example facebook groups of people affected by a disease, or people with a vested interest in knowing about potential natural disasters. They’re a natural constituency for pushing for policy change, even if they don’t realize it yet.
