PDA Weekly Review and Preview for 7-29-23. Join us!
Much Done, and Much More to Do:
Here’s How We Can All Help Bring Home Wins
Yet another busy week in PDALand.
This past week we held our largest Disabilities Issue Organizing Team call ever as we commemorated the anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act. We also held our monthly Labor and Economics Issue Organizing Team call, and stood with labor in support of striking workers.
We’ve been working in coalition with healthcare organizations to organize around Medicare’s 58th Birthday on Sunday, and our weekly town hall will include recognition of that birth.
In the upcoming week we’ll combat the Climate Emergency, work for peace, and fight for social and racial justice, as well as justice for Trumpist insurrectionists.
We’ll continue the struggle, 7 days a week, and we hope you’ll join us as well.
Just an hour here or there can make a real difference when it’s focused on a productive project.
Please pick one or more of these actions/projects, and let’s make some noise together!
1) Progressive Virtual Town Hall Sunday: Medicare Birthday Party and Keith Ellison with his new book. Featured Guest Keith Ellison—progressive powerhouse, current Attorney General of Minnesota, and former Medicare for All-supporting Congressman—will discuss his new book on combating police violence. We’ll also re-commit ourselves to getting Expanded and Improved Medicare for All. You’ll leave energized and organized. RSVP here.
