Move Over Spanberger... #SummerLee to Deliver Working Families Response to Trump State of the Union
“I’m going to say what too many politicians won’t: The system is rigged, the obscenely wealthy are profiting from it, and working people deserve more than scraps.”

As Democrats plan boycotts and counterprogramming to President Donald #Trump’s State of the Union address next week, #progressives are readying their own response to resist not just the historically unpopular commander-in-chief, but the centrist faction of their own party.

For years, the State of the Union has served as a platform for rising stars in the opposition party. The Democrats are rolling out the newly minted Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger, a darling of the party establishment.

#DetroitMI - "The Michigan Working Families Party is getting out the vote for these bold change-makers who will serve the people rather than corporations. Both members of the Democratic Socialists of America, #DenzelMcCampbell and #GabrielaSantiagoRomero are running against #CorporateDemocrats.

The #WorkingFamiliesParty’s Neighborhood Captains program has mobilized Detroiters to encourage their neighbors to vote.

In addition to knocking on doors and making phone calls, these captains have hosted neighborhood events to discuss issues and build relationships with their neighbors. This is an important step toward long-term community-based relational organizing that regularly engages voters in issues that impact them.

Denzel has led campaigns for justice and equity, voting rights and campaign finance reform, and responsive governments that co-govern with constituents. He is running against a State Representative who has voted with Republicans against paid family leave, against raising the minimum wage, and against public school funding—while failing to protect reproductive rights.

Detroit is one of the poorest cities in the country, so its residents deserve elected leaders who serve the working class. Denzel and Gaby are running for Detroit City Council to make housing and healthcare affordable, protect immigrants and other vulnerable residents, hold corporate polluters accountable, and push for a budget that centers community investment.

Gaby, who’s running for re-election, hit the ground running in her first term on the council. She secured funding to keep Detroiters in their homes and to support first-time homeowners, passed a policy to protect Detroiters from industrial pollution, and created a successful Community Violence Intervention program. She’s also offering “know your rights” trainings for immigrants and championing policy to limit local police cooperation with ICE."

My sister's on SNAP and the healthcare market. She suffers from mental health issues and is a recovering addict. She didn't ask for any of that. Republicans can keep their hands off my sister's benefits and they can keep their hands off my neighbor's benefits, too.

Love and solidarity to all those folks out there who are beautiful people who need some help. <3
