A special guest at our VA phonebank + a Tax Day primal scream video)
Hey, all!
A quick note about the phonebank into Virginia I’m co-hosting with the Grassroots Dems HQ today: We have a very special guest coming to kick it off—Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi!! Come and hear her tell us why this election is so important!
The phonebank is at 3PM PT / 6PM ET. We have a ton of RSVPs and a great trainer—I hope you’ll come and help. It’s more important than ever that we win this ballot measure and win it massively; we can only do that with your help.
Here’s the RSVP link. Hope to see some of you there!
Talk tomorrow!

P.S. — I sent you a Tax Day primal scream video because I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels like paying taxes this year is AWFUL.
Why is there no organized tax resistance happening? We are living "taxation without representation" since last spring when Trump did away with congressionally approved expenditures and has spent billions on a war that is not congressionally approved. Where is the movement to withhold our money until expenditures are made according to congressional decisions?
Yes, I HATE paying thousands of dollars in taxes this year to wage war and destroy our once great nation, our environment, and our freedom. My husband and I are retired. We were professionals, health care administrators in a poor, rural area, who lived a very frugal lifestyle and saved every penny we could. 90% of our recreation was tent camping and exploring wilderness. Now, because we were successful in building a comfortable nest egg, we need to send the regime another $20,000. And what do we get? War and destruction. I might try primal screaming.
