The results are in and I am calling it. Nearly everyone who has responded so far is OK with the Friday December 8th, 6-9PM time for the Holiday meet-and-visit-and work potluck. Please bring something for everyone to enjoy (if you are able) but remember to order the main course off the Lucky Lab menu!
We can spend the first hour or so eating and chatting with other Mult Dems leaders, then move into the activity for the night.
What: A in-person get-together holiday potluck for all MultDems DL, ADLs and NL Coordinators.
Please forward this invite to ANYONE else who you think might be a good fit for the group! The space is big enough to hold 35-40 for the event so everyone is invited!
When: Friday December 8th, 6 - 9PM
Where: The party room at the Lucky Labrador location on SE Hawthorne
915 SE Hawthorne Blvd. Portland, OR 97214 503-236-3555
Why: To meet and interact with others DL, ADLs and NL Coordinators and to share best-known methods of motivating and communicating with other Democrats.
What to bring: Please order your dinner off the menu provided by Lucky Labrador, but they are happy to let us bring desserts and treats for a potluck!
Thanks, John Murphy 38 DL

CANCELED: Meeting for Media Reform
CANCELED: Meeting for Media Reform
December 21, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86930104893?pwd=WEh2RldEdm9yQjlZUUQyMXFHMXF3UT09
We will consider the state of national media, e.g., coverage of President Biden's prime time speech of September 1, as well as work on our LAI items.
LAIs ref: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1517barvn9TWx4u-crTGq_UPCKJGtQ1HW524kSNYmVlo/edit?usp=sharing
We will consider actions to promote media fairness, accuracy, and access.
Motivation: Everything our study groups are working on can be blocked or distorted by inaccuracy, bias, inaccessibility, or omission in transmission by media. Media are the lifeblood of our community as a city, a state, a nation, and a planet.
