Our successful food drive made the pages of The Pagosa Sun. We try not to quibble, but they sadly did not mention that we collected $7,500 and two SUVs' worth of pantry goods from our generous community, while SNAP benefits were frozen by the Trump administration. And that we donated $500 of our own as a party.
We also were happy to see the story about our upcoming Dems Club meeting presentation from Rise Above Violence, an organization that supports local victims of domestic violence. (That's on Monday, Nov. 17th, and we hope to see you there.) Meanwhile the local GOP is policing whether lawmakers are MAGA enough (that's also in the latest issue of The Sun).
Finally, we're proud that several of our volunteers are actively setting up a local League of Women Voters chapter, a nonpartisan group. You don't have to read the paper - or your favorite news site - to know that informed and engaed voters are good for democracy.
