While none of us is feeling celebratory about the current President, we nevertheless can, and should, join each other to discuss our shared values, and our 2026 plans to turn around our country – to defend our very democracy.
Whether you have remained active in the Party, or you haven’t been to a political event in a while, we urge you to take some time out to keep our party ACTIVE, VISIBLE, and VITAL!
