Lindsey Port, who lives with severe Long COVID, represents District 55 in the Minnesota State Senate. How does she do it and to what extent can state governments impact the lives of people with chronic illness? In our conversation, Senator Port shares why she insists on disability accommodations, why it was important for her to share her Long COVID story, and why she encourages YOU to share yours.

Senator Port believes that while there are valid reasons for concern as the government undergoes a transition, there are concrete reasons to remain hopeful.
