Just joined the group but I found the information inspiring and action focused. As a member of my local Dem committee, I am doing my part. We just held a candidate night and what a great success it was despite the 90F heat and no a/c, we had a great turnout from our tri- town area of SE MA ( Marion, Mattapoisett & Rochester). Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend! ✌️💙🇺🇸

Hi Jessica, I am so appreciative re your calls to action. I have followed through on many of them. I just want to let your readers know that I called the DOD IG's hotline. The result is that you cannot make the request over the phone. Callers are directed to a report form on the Web. FYI, It's quite a lengthy process.

I asked to speak to a representative and got a live human being. No form. Took note. Very nice. A human being.

Beth is correct. I just called & talked to a very young man who essentially asked if I wanted to submit a form. I did ask that they follow thru on this & he assured me they are working on it.

It has indeed been a fine week. Kyrsten Sinema has acted, true to form and has extracted items that make a number of different interests happy. (I've known her for nearly twenty years) The Far Right has responded to her actions with its customary venom-which will not faze her a bit.

Hey Jess. Can you make a list for us of ALL the vulnerable candidates now that need support. I am getting fund raisers from all around the country. AZ, GA, PA, NH, etc etc. Everyone is saying they are the most vulnerable...from governors, to senators etc. My own senator (Bennett) is up for re-election. I must support him. I want to send money to everyone... but I can't. I think we could all use some help prioritizing....When you are back from vacation would be fine. Enjoy all the minutes! Thanks.

Hi! So Blue Tent just sent out a great post, with which I fully agree, urging folks not to give to individual candidates, but to focus on grassroots groups in swing states instead. You can read their great post about where best to give for the 2022 elections here. https://docs.google.com/document/d/13pvzT4gB7FK7n0O_3p6_ymrBaSIlpB3YbkuZCjNXGKw/edit
