Letters to veterans, office hours, and voter engagement opportunities
Hey Team Sharice!
With parade season finally over, we've had a chance to catch our breath and reflect on what we've done this summer and fall, from the DCCC battlestation launch party and voter registration events, to a food drive for striking UAW workers at our Fairfax plant and a counter-protest in support of our congresswoman.
And did we mention the parades? Most recently, we joined Rep. Davids in the Turner Days Parade, where she practiced her wobbling skills with the senior class float, high-fived her way down the two-mile route, then ran back to walk part of it over again with the members of Turner High School's Gay-Straight Alliance.
We have a lot coming up, but we first want to offer our gratitude to all of the candidates who ran for local office this year. While not everyone will begin next year as an elected official, everyone who ran took a risk and ran campaigns they can be proud of. Thank you for running; we look forward to continuing to make our communities better every day with you.
UPCOMING EVENTS
