We need to put a BIG effort into contacting our constituents; I believe it is urgent for the 2022 election. I know we are at a transition in redistricting, but this goes beyond our candidates. It’s about our Democratic Party and Democracy. I would start, but I am unable to access Van anymore.
I am a Bernie supporter and a Progressive. I was not happy when Biden won the primary, but he is doing a very good job. However, the media would prefer to point out his missteps rather than what he is up against and the fact that he has made progress for the people. It took Republicans—Reaganomics—40 years to destroy much of our government. Reaganomics was also embraced by Democrats. Our rebuilding will not happen in a year, and Democratic constituents deserve to hear that from Democrats—not biased media.
The mainstream media is owned entirely by Conservative companies who like Trump’s tax cuts. They do not like how President Biden will find a way for billionaires to pay for the Build Back Better bill. Meanwhile, the payment methods for the Pentagon’s bill, which equals 3 trillion dollars over 10 years, is not being challenged at all. What’s wrong here? The truth is even though President Biden has the Executive Branch, the Senate and Congress, it is still an uphill battle and constituents need to know how important their vote is in the next election. There are a handful of Progressive and Liberal radio talk show hosts while there are over 1,500 right-wing talk show hosts. The right-wing is now starting Spanish right-wing talk radio. We need to contact the Democrats. We need to give them hope and tell them how important their vote is.
I beg you to set up a team of volunteers to call, canvas, and mail our dedication to keeping Democracy alive and well. It won’t happen at the federal level. We need to start now. There is too much controversy over redistricting to wait for this to resolve. Calling Democrats, Independents, and even reaching out to Republicans. We did this in LD28 for the last election, and it worked. Let’s do it NOW for Democratic success in 2022. Democrats are doing what they always do after a Presidential election, kick back especially since tRump didn’t win. He is out there and not at all ready to give up. Let’s not relax. Let’s get active and save our country.
