A Note From Training: Democracy for All
Hearing those stories made me understand why voting was so important to them. My grandfather looked at every piece of political mail and wanted my opinion on candidates and measures.
To think that the law that made it illegal to impede the right to vote has been weakened by the Supreme Court sickens me. Every article I read about Republican efforts to make it harder to vote in state after state enrages me.
That’s why our Voter Protection team is so important. We need trainers to help us build the most diverse team possible to ensure that every Californian is able to exercise their right to vote.
We also need Democrats to Contest Every Race possible. We’re partnering with the DNC to host a boot camp for candidates. If that’s you, sign up. We need you.
We also need people to join the fight against the Republican attack on women. We hope you join us for our Women’s history month event on March 1st to hear how many amazing Democratic women leaders are doing just that. Our mighty women’s caucus has planned an inspiring event that you won’t want to miss.
Similarly, our CDP Secretary Melahat Rafiei has planned our first ever Nowruz event to celebrate the Persian New Year. If you know Melahat, you know it’s not to be missed.
I know that many of you miss our JEDI discussion series. I know because you tell me often. It’s coming back. We just needed to recruit a few more facilitators. Can we count on you?
In closing, I want to say thank you for all you do to fight for our democracy. We Democrats believe in democracy for all, not just some. My grandparents really helped me to understand that. Who inspired you? I’d love to read your stories about who motivates you as I shared about my grandparents.
Warmly,
Vincent Jones
Training Director + Senior Advisor
