JDWA and DJOP Celebrate PRIDE with Purpose and Activism   June is Pride Month, a time to recognize LGBTQ+ visibility, progress, and achievement. Unfortunately, this year we also face escalating political assaults on the LGBTQ+ community–including kids, parents, and teachers.

DJOP invites you to an evening with David Daley, author of Rat F**ked: The True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America’s Democracy.

Daley will discuss what separates this gerrymandering effort from previous efforts, and the role that technology and the Citizens United decision played in this scheme. State Senator Daylin Leach will be our moderator. Leach is currently running in the…

While it won’t be easy – due, in large part, to gerrymandering – our party has a realistic chance of taking back the U.S. House.

For one thing, when the president’s party controls the House, it typically faces an uphill battle retaining control in midterm elections. Furthermore, despite Meehan’s attempts to portray himself as not beholden…
