Expressions of feelings against Trump- Bus trip to D.C. & follow-up meeting scheduled for theater on Saturday.
Ross reiterates that our goals for the year are simple:
1. Elect Democratic Governor, Lt. Governor, and Attorney General
2. Find someone to run against Weibert and get him/her elected
3. Work on redistricting in 2021
Talking Points for our anti-Weibert Candidate:
1. Taxes- Hank will explain the tie between the cutting of funds to a connection to rise in property taxes. This poses a burden on the County. Attack the “no tax” pledge.
