Join us for the Democratic Caucus
Democrats and Independents, if you are concerned about the current state of Iowa and the nation, you can do something about it. Join us for the Democratic Caucus beginning at 7 p.m. Jan. 15 at the Mount Vernon High School Commons. This caucus site will include Bertram, Brown, Franklin and Putnam Townships as well as Mount Vernon 1 and 2 precincts. Please see the press release and article in this edition for more details.
The caucus will be brief as the presidential preference part will be done via mail. (Again, refer to the press release and article.) But that does not mean that the caucus is not important. It is very important.
You are important. Your involvement and the involvement of many like-minded individuals can reverse the Republican legislation that is causing so much harm to Iowans: to schools, women, the LGBTQ+ community, workers, local governments, law enforcement, the environment, and the list goes on. Your involvement and the involvement of like-minded individuals can save our country from a president who claims he will be a dictator “only on the first day of office.”
You may feel helpless at times, but you are not. Join us for the Democratic caucus and help create a better future for our children and grandchildren!
