This election season, and particularly the primaries, is a really exciting one! We have competitive races and new faces up and down the ballot in Vermont! Primary season is the time to push the conversation and ask tough questions. It’s a real opportunity to get to know candidates and for them to learn about your life and policy interests. I’m writing to invite you into this conversation and ask you to share the event information with your network.

Starting on June 15th, we will host candidate events every other Wednesday on the Brattleboro Town Common. Sometimes we’ll have a debate or speeches or a panel conversation. Sometimes we’ll host a dinner table conversation. At our first event on June 15th we will have a cook-out with some soap box speeches. We’re encouraging folks to come and table, to bring posters and leaflets, to join with their causes and their curiosity. We’re hoping to have kids and games and talk about abortions all at once. It will be community and politics and we hope you can join us and spread the word.
