This Is What Grassroots Organizing Looks Like!

Earlier today, I had the pleasure of attending the Carroll, Douglas, and Paulding Tri-County Democratic meeting—and let me tell you, it is truly inspiring to be in a room full of people who care so deeply about their communities and are ready to put in the work to make a difference.
