🚨 BREAKING
The US Senate today passed Senator Rubio’s S-623 (congress.gov/bill/117th-con…) for permanent Daylight Saving Time, by voice consent, without committee review. The bill next transmits to the US House.
THREAD 🧵
We need now, more than ever:

• House willpower to amend the Sunshine Protection Act to permanent Standard Time.
• A legislator willing to introduce our Sleep Protection Act for permanent Standard Time (savestandard.medium.com/model-legislat…).
Per phone call by SST President @mr_jay_pea to US Capitol switchboard:

On viral exposure, APCs take up viral particles and present the antigens on their surface. T-helper cells (Th1) bind to these antigens and in turn stimulate:
1)T-killer cells (CD8+) which directly kill infected cells
2)B cells which produce antibodies
