How would you spend your own tax dollars?

INVEST IN DEMOCRACY
Here’s what you can do:

  • Get Informed: Can you see the impact of war in your neighborhood? What services have been compromised? In Education? Security? Housing? Health Care?
  • Get Vocal: Talk to your neighbors. Then talk to all those folks so eager to grab your vote come November. Where do they stand? Remember what Tip O’Neill said, “All politics is local."
  • Get Busy: Discover the power in solidarity, so look around,
    find a social action group, join up and get involved.

Please let us know about what you are doing.

And join us in the streets.
We welcome all ages, women and men.
In peace always.
