First, we thank you so much if you were active with us over the past week. Your efforts are vital as we attempt to turn this ship around. While much Musk, Trump, MAGA, and Project 2025 insanity dominated the news over the week, we continued our work on the phones, at the doors, in the streets, in the suites, and on social media, organizing neighborhood by neighborhood to build the movement required to bring about real change, and keep our endangered communities safe. Keep your eyes peeled on your in-box for actions around the Congressional recess and more, leading up to another massive series of events on May 1.

Thanks for highlighting young dandidates
I Suggest you encourage PDA activists to choose a specific issue to be a more effective activist on . Once they pick their issue be more focused on connecting voters values with that issue rather than just sloganeering.Health care, immigrant and voting rights;corruption of government conflict of interest with oligarchs that usually domnate authoritaian dicatator ships,economic issues.Pickpeople who have a career , family or relative issue, personal talent issue or economic issue that really light their fire. Thanks we also want more effective influencers podcasters,artists,musicians, athletes,Thanks
