Hi, all, and happy Tuesday. I hope everyone got some rest this weekend. I must confess, I’d forgotten it was Memorial Day weekend until it was almost upon me. Like many Americans, I felt far from celebratory, but did enjoy the extra time with family and close friends. If there’s one thing all of this carnage is reminding me to do, it is to embrace those dear to me and enjoy every second I have with them. So I did.
If you or your contacts are interested, I am the invited zoom speaker for the LWV No. San Mateo County CA annual meeting on Saturday at 10 am PT. The League has said we may invite others to attend. My approach is to present a very quick history of voting rights in the Constitution / Congressional action up to VRA65 and then post Shelby Court/ current Supreme Court, leading up to a sufficient information about the Freedom to Vote : John R Lewis VRA so voters will be aroused to help defeat the filibuster. I have 45 minutes so this will be speedy and I will make the slides available to everyone afterwards. There should be time for questions. Link below
Talking points. The republicans are correct this is a mental health issue. Republicans mental health issue. How we can’t use that against them, shoot non violent holes in that empty argument is beyond me. Agreed, Abbott, Coryn, Cruz, the entrance republican senate plus 2 insane democrats… all mentally ill. Is human depravity a mental health issue, yes. Or had the entire republican party developed Narcissistic personality disorder?
Your customers might find The Gifford Law Center a rich resource to help provide safe gun laws, storage and protection to their families, children and community.
I would suggest your marketing staff review the links above and help promote as a public service announcement some of the actions proposed by Giffords and Everytown.
