[PHOTO] I sent 19 emails to politicians, had 4 meetings, and now I get emails like this. There is SO MUCH low hanging fruit in just doing this for 30 minutes a day (I would do it but my LTFF funding does not cover this). Someone should do this!

(Speaking as someone on LTFF, but not on behalf of LTFF)
How large of a constraint is this for you? I don’t have strong opinions on whether this work is better than what you’re funded to do, but usually I think it’s bad if LTFF funding causes people to do things that they think is less (positively) impactful!
We probably can’t fund people to do things that are lobbying or lobbying-adjacent, but I’m keen to figure out or otherwise brainstorm an arrangement that works for you.

Hey Linch, thanks for reaching out! Maybe send me your email or HMU here yannikyriacos@gmail.com
(I think you blanked out their name from their email footer but not from the bottom of the email, but not sure how anonymous you wanted to keep them.)
ffs
fixed. thanks mate :)
You should probably also blank their job title (which would make it easy to work out who they are) and their phone number (!)
Why am I so bad at this Stephen. Send help.
