Join us every Thursday morning to hear fellow Democrats share good news and recommendations. What good things have you seen or read or heard or experienced lately? What’s On Your Mind lets you connect with friends and influence progressive leaders in the community, week after week..

Short Read of the Week for April 1, 2021

In this morning’s Short Read of the Week meeting we discussed five articles shown here and at https://tinyurl.com/TillcoDems-short-reads. Our first choice, based on our desire to promote unified support for President Biden’s agenda among those who share our values but may not agree with our tactics, was:

Joe Biden is giving left parties the world over a masterclass in how to use power https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/mar/26/joe-biden-left-parties-power-radical-winning
[our copy here]

And because it is so urgent that we respond effectively to Republican efforts to suppress Democratic votes, we also chose:

Corporations Will Oppose Voting Rights Unless Consumers Act https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/03/30/corporations-will-oppose-voting-rights-unless-consumers-act/
[our copy here]

Remember that these short Thursday-morning meetings are your best way of influencing (or just understanding) the thinking of your fellow Tillamook County Democrats on civic and political matters. We do them on Zoom partly to save time, partly to cultivate community and conversation, and partly to have fun. So the meeting itself, really, is more important than the articles we talk about or the decisions we make. Please join us next week!
