Traverse City’s 3rd Annual Women’s March
Hope you are planning on attending the Women’s March in Traverse City or one close to wherever you happen to be. Women made considerable political strides in 2018 – especially by winning seats in the House and in state government positions all over the country. And talented woman plan to run for President in 2020.
This will be an exciting year to watch more women politicians than ever make their mark in government. Please consider starting it off with a bang. It is hard to beat the camaraderie, signs and chants which have become core parts of the women’s marches.
Traverse City – January 19, Saturday, 1:00 p.m. The link below gives the details.

From Leelanau Indivisibles:
Save the date for this upcoming event.
American Promise is a non-partisan group committed to getting a Constitutional Amendment that overturns Citizens United and to get money out of politics once and for all. According to American Promise, they are already getting bi-partisan Congressional support for this idea. One of their founders has spoken to Jack Bergman who indicates he thinks this is a good idea—although he has not given a firm commitment yet.
Let’s show up and show strong support for the Northwestern (lower) Michigan launch of this initiative.
Here’s a petition for Mitch McConnell to place the open the government bill up for a vote in the Senate. Please consider signing.– https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?tab=wm#inbox/FMfcgxwBVDGPCkPcKGxvrjhQpSRmbSvd
Sen. Gary Peters speaks in Suttons Bay
Michigan Senator Gary Peters will be speaking at the VI Grill on Sat. Jan 26, at 10:00 a.m. in Suttons Bay. This event is a great opportunity to meet with the other Senator from Michigan. (We seem to hear much more from Sen. Debbie Stabenow than Peters.) He will explain what he has been up to and how he feels about Mitch McConnell’s actions.
And think of all the good questions that should be asked. Hope you can attend..
