PDA Weekly Review and Preview for 12-21-24. Join us!
Much Done, and Much More to Do:
Here’s How We Can Move Forward to Build the Resistance
First, we hope that you and yours are having a peaceful, joyous, and healing Holiday Season, and we thank you so much if you were active with us over the past week.
If you still need time to process and heal from the events of the past month, know that we hear you, and we’re here to help however we can.
Over the past week we’ve been building local action teams, advocating to get President Biden’s federal judges confirmed, clemency for death row inmates in federal prisons, and working to protect those community members who are especially potentially vulnerable as we ramp up to resist what Trump and MAGA and our unelected co-President Elon Musk have in store.
We will continue this work and more over the upcoming week, and if you’re up to it, please pick one or more of these actions/projects, and let’s make some good trouble, together!
1) Progressive Virtual Town Hall Sunday: Solidarity, and Growing the Activity of Younger Voters. We’ll be joined by Special Guests Hartzell Gray of Young Progressive Democrats of America and a representative of the striking Starbucks workers. We’ll discuss activating young voters and showing solidarity with union activity at Starbucks, Amazon, and elsewhere. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of purpose and solidarity. We hope to see you Sunday!

In solidarity,
Mike Fox for the PDA National Team
