ICYMI 🚨 Our new paper in @PLOSONE 🚨
We present an empirically grounded modeling framework that helps decision makers anticipate how effective and equitable policy outcomes are, depending on how policies are designed and how people respond to them.

#ICYMI, Today we formally launched the campaign! 🥳 There's strength in numbers and we can't do this without the community. Can we count on you to chip in $25 for this people powered race? 💪#WithWorthington #txlege https://t.co/pv0H8B8Bwu

Is TX electricity system ready for the coming winter? What progress has happened since the Feb’21 #txblackouts? I joined @MoseBuchele yesterday on
@TPRSource to discuss these and other issues. Take a listen 👂: https://t.co/BV7reo8r1G

[Mose Buchele @MoseBuchele]

I'm gonna be on TPR's The Source with @raivarun81 today at noon to talk about the Texas power grid and what's happened since the blackout to try and fix it.
