As President Trump escalates his attempts to control us, it is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country. If he believes we will roll over and allow him to take our freedoms, he is mistaken. We are coming together again on March 28 because we know we can overcome this repression when we unite. Join millions of your fellow Americans to rally for our Democracy! America does not belong to strongmen, greedy billionaires, or those who rule through fear. It belongs to us, the people.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION is a team-building event to generate interest in organizing for November. We will teach all about your precinct, how to communicate with your Dem neighbors, and how to Get Out the Vote (GOTV). This is an opportunity for you to plug in and make a impact on voters in West Bloomfield and the Lakes.
Let's move away from fundraising texts, doom-scrolling and insipid messages and into taking action here in WB, one block, one household at a time.
We want to hear from you, what is important to your neighbors, and your family. We want to educate you. Do you have questions about the Dem party structure? Do you know what a precinct delegate does? Let us teach you how to become a local activist.
Become part of the conversation in WB and the Lakes. There is no charge for this event. Light refreshments will be provided.
