I found it frustrating to do legal/policy epidemiology with non-lawyers, because most non-lawyers don't care about or understand the legal idiosyncrasies that can prevent a law from having the effect you think it will.
I was often encouraged to pay less attention to these types of variables.
This is why Elizabeth Emens calls "life admin" an invisible cost of being disabled.
It always incenses me that no one I talk to recognizes that time I spend talking to them is time I'm not able to spend working, relaxing, or doing literally *anything else*.
Also, FWIW, I don't think legal/policy epi are actually different if you understand legal processes/mechanisms.

52 senators voted in favor of allocating an additional $70 billion to fuel ICE and Border Patrol's campaign of chaos and violence in our communities without any reforms.
The House of Representatives must reject this bill and any attempts to give ICE more money to violate our rights.
