The Brooklyn Can't Wait coalition is working to elect District Leaders committed to a more transparent, engaged and active Brooklyn Democratic Party. A crucial step in that process begins this week!
Join us Tuesday, January 23 at 7pm at First Unitarian in Brooklyn Heights or on Zoom for a joint endorsement meeting to hear from District Leader candidates. All are welcome to connect with potential future leaders of our local Democratic Party and ask them questions! Each partner club will conduct their own endorsement vote after the meeting.
