A Virginia congressman has gone back to college to study artificial intelligence so he can help regulate it.
Yup. This is my guy, my VA rep. I remember getting either a mailer, or a newsletter, or whatever, update from his office talking about him starting this. Thought it was great and locked in my support. I agree we need to keep flowing in young blood into congress, but Don is still doing good work and doing his best to keep relevant.
I’d take a Don Beyer over any young Republican lackey any day (hello, Moscow Marge).
Fuck age - I want a thinking person with real experience, who makes an effort to do what’s right for all of us.
Honestly, a solid half of the reason I want young people in Congress is that they're (in theory) still willing to learn, so I'm fairly ok with this guy if he's willing to put in the work.
The other half is because they'll have to live with the consequences for longer, so let's still get the average age in politics down, but yeah. I like hearing about this guy.
