PDA Weekly Review and Preview for 2-12-22
By Alan Minsky, Executive Director – Progressive Democrats of America
Another Busy Week Behind Us, and Before Us. You in?
We’ve been fighting for peace, social, and economic, racial, and environmental justice over the past week, including calling for all Democratic candidates running for congress to sign onto our 21st-Century Economic Bill of Rights.
We also have our eye on the prizes in the March 1 primary in Texas, where Jessica Cisneros and Greg Casar will be new Squad members if we help bring home the victories for them.
Lots to get done this upcoming week, and we need a full team effort to make it all happen. Please join us in any way(s) you can via the actions below.
Together, we’ll make a real difference!
- Progressive Virtual Town Hall Sunday: The Case of Julian Assange. Join host of Democracy Now!, and one of America’s and the world’s leading advocates for press freedom Amy Goodman, PDA Advisory Board Member and former President of the National Lawyers Guild Marjorie Cohn, USC Law Professor Jody Armour, and PDA Executive Director Alan Minsky for this essential Town Hall on freedom of the press and whistleblower protections. Sunday at 4pm ET/1pm PT. RSVP here.
- Winning the First Primary in the Country, March 1. With Greg Casar (TX-35) and Jessica Cisneros (TX-28) we have two great Squad pick-ups we need to bring home. We need you in the game, regardless of where you live.
