32nd LD!

Greetings!

The State Democrats held their 2013 Reorganization this last weekend and reelected Dwight Pelz as our Chair. Today Dwight invites us to tell State Senators Rodney Tom and Tim Sheldon that they're not invited to our party anymore! Click the link below and cosign the letter!

Call out Tom and Sheldon for the traitors that they are. Join us and co-sign our letter telling Rodney Tom and Tim Sheldon that they are no longer part of the Democratic Party.

Our next meeting February 13th, Wednesday at 7PM we will discuss the proposed dam for electric power that is under consideration for the Skykomish River.

See beautiful on location footage shot by documentary filmmaker Andrea Matke, who has also spent her life familiar with The Wild and Beautiful Skykomish River. She will share her new film clips of the wild beauty of this scenic river as it courses from the mountains to the sea. SavetheSkyRiver.org

A dam for electric power is under consideration now for this river, and that controversy will be explored.

NEW EMAIL LIST!

Join our new email communication list

32LDDemocrats@yahoogroups.com

Adopting a good idea from our friends in the 46th LD we are starting a new email list for communication in the district. 32^nd LD Members look for an invitation to join 32LDDemocrats@yahoogroups.org .

This is a mailing list where we can talk about the issues of the day, the business of the district, and anything else related to our local, state or national governments. But at the same time, we have set some guidelines for the list that we need you to be aware of. We will not tolerate racist language, publishing personal attacks with a reckless disregard for the truth, nor other ad hominem attacks. We just don't have the time for such distractions while we do the work of taking our country back for ALL the people. Please be respectful of others as you write. If you have any questions about this mailing list, please feel free to contact me at carin.chase@32democrats.org.

Let's build a better America and a better Washington together!

Carin
