Friday
1.Vote them Out
Another mass shooting. More senseless loss of life. Complete and total inaction from our GOP leaders who are beholden to the NRA. Nothing will change until we VOTE THEM OUT. If you are feeling angry and frustrated, channel your energy toward getting responsible people to represent you. Pick a campaign and dedicate yourself to helping them win.

Last fall, constituents in Virginia used the voting booth to send a clear message to their elected officials. The Virginia Grassroots Coalition has created a document of “lessons learned” from the 2017 election season. Let’s read it and apply the knowledge to campaigns here in Minnesota.

Unbelievably, a week and a half after 17 kids were gunned down, the congressman from district 2, Jason Lewis, will be the guest speaker at an event celebrating the 2nd amendment. The title of the event is, “How Gun Control Hurts The Most Vulnerable”. Obviously, he needs to lose his seat in November. In the meantime, consider attending a vigil outside of the event on Friday, February 23rd in Lakeville starting at 6 pm. Keep in mind, this will be a peaceful protest. Stay tuned for more information.

2. DACA
Four Immigration bills were presented in the Senate. All four bills failed to pass. The future of the Dreamers looks grim. Read more about it here: https://www.vox.com/…/senate-immigration-daca-bill-vote-fai…
Call your members of Congress and ask them why Dreamers are being left behind. In November, let’s vote for better leaders.
