John -
Let's get ready to rumble. The fall campaign season is upon us and we've got House seats to defend, Senate seats to flip, and a progressive agenda to fight for. Every door you knock, every call you make, every voter contact is a ripple which will make this blue wave come November.
There is a detailed breakdown of the upcoming canvasses further down in the email, so please be sure to read it and sign up!
Make sure to get your tickets for the first Joint Campaign Committee Gold Card event of the year, the Arlington Dems Labor Day Chili Cook-Off [[link removed]] !
One last thing, it's back to school season and the Arlington County Democrats Black Caucus is hosting a Back to School Backpack Drive for much-needed school supplies. The Back to School Backpack Drive will benefit teachers, staff, and students at Drew Elementary School and Hoffman-Boston Elementary School ! Here's a wishlist from the two schools, please consider donating! [[link removed]]
