MoveOn and a collection of other groups are planning a nation-wide march for the night before the House's vote on impeachment.

A federal court has ruled, in a 75 page decision, that the impeachment inquiry being carried out now with three committees is legal and following the proper procedure. It has also ruled that the Grand Jury testimony that was redacted in the Mueller Report is to be made available to the Congressional committees. This is all good news going forward. It also invalidates the inaccurate motivation for the incursion by GOP, including LaMalfa, into the confidential meetings.

Precinct Captain Training
|
|
|
It has been proven that the personal contact and door-to-door meetups are the most effective in GOTV. The precinct Captain Program will give you a limited area that is YOUR neighborhood. You will get information that will enable you to contact other Democrats. ( No use trying to convince the Republicans in your area.) But, we want and NEED all Democrats to vote! The training will be on this Saturday, 11/2 from 10-2 p.m. It will be at the Placer Co. Dem office in Roseville. Trainers will show you how to meet your neighbors, write up a catchy, informative door-hanger for outreach, and more. We need to get the reluctant voters out in mass. To register go to PANregistration
