- Convert this outrage into action. Do fund raising.
- Set up an organization that can run a marathon. Burnout for activists is very high.
- Someone, somewhere will pass this legislation. Find them. Even if it's just for virtue signaling. Like a city, which can't enforce such laws, passes a measure, to build awareness and demonstrate support for a policy.
- Get politicians on record. Create a candidate questionnaire. Send it out to all campaigns. Publish the answers.
- Encourage various local political parties (congressional districts, state level legislative districts, etc) to include your questionnaire (as part of their endorsement processes).
- Get various parties to include your policy in their platforms. Again, builds aweness and demonstrates support.
That stigma started with the parents of teenagers, who committed suicide while taking steroids, appealing to their congressman. Prior to reading The Waxman Report, I had no idea what the fuss was about.
It's takes decades to change policy, enact legislation. A very readable intro is the Waxman Report. https://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Report-Congress-Really-Works/d...
