Sadly, not yet moved (three weeks!), I can’t vote in the Denver Mayor’s race. But if I could, I would be ECSTATIC to vote for @MikeJohnstonCO!

He’s a compassionate leader, generous public servant, fantastic friend, and the person I hope to call my Mayor soon.

If you can, vote!

[Chris Higginson @chrischigginson]

After a week to let it sink in, I'm THRILLED to share that I'm heading back to Denver to begin residency at @cufamilymed!!

Grateful beyond words to mentors, friends, and family who have supported me.

@DrRitaHamad @Health_Affairs @AdamSchiff @UCnpi @UCBerkeleySPH @CAPolicyLab @Cal_IHEA @pamela_herd @donmoyn Thank you for this fantastic study, Dr. Hamad!

Because you're in the Bay Area, you may be interested in the work of @assisthub_org - especially re: final recommendation of "creating a unified simple application to determine eligibility for all safety-net programs."

Can't wait to join the #FMRevolution!

In addition to everything else they do, all three FM docs here teach/inspire learners, too. Dr. Barzin lectures on health policy, Dr. Iglesias leads the Healer's Art course, and Dr. Fedoriw supervises the outpatient clinical year rotation.

great cross-disciplinary piece by @talmonsmith - these dynamics must exist in ports across the country, anywhere the offshore/marine economy has impact (like New Orleans, where Tal and I grew up and played soccer together!)

and stunning photos from @lindseywasson

New dispatch: I embedded with a marine oil transport crew to see both their skills & the male labor shortage up close…despite all of the zoom-doable jobs, we still need to do/move actual stuff & need oil mariners. do guys en masse know of/want these jobs?

Happy Election Day! Tried to vote with some advice I heard recently in mind: vote for those who protect the next generation, not just their next generation.

As always, tremendously grateful for the privilege of voting. #Vote2022 #IVoted

[Chris Higginson @chrischigginson]

Shocking to read that the GWB and Obama administrations, together, filed for emergency relief a total of 8 times (prevailing in 4) and Trump admin filed 41 times (prevailed in 28).

I knew it had increased, but didn't know how dramatically.
