Strategies, tactics, and tips for how every day Americans can fight back together wherever we live.” In the bottom right corner is a picture of the US Capitol building and in front of it 2 signs held up by raised arms reading “Abortion is Healthcare. Healthcare is a Human Right” and “We Demand Democracy”.Indivisible Charlottesville, in cooperation with other local groups, is coordinating a “Worth Fighting For” community organizing meeting in the Downtown Central Library’s Swanson Case Room at 11am on Saturday, Nov. 23 to strategize about the Trump 2.0 Administration. Attendees will:

  • Identify the roles we can all play to defend the people and civil institutions we care about.
  • Build connections with others who are ready to fight for a just and equitable future.
  • Begin forming action plans (building on this guide circulated by Indivisible and other partner organizations after the election).

We pick ourselves up and we move forward.

This election season was full of good energy, in spite of some of the outcomes. As co-chairs of the Cville Dems, we were thrilled to have so many volunteers helping in so many ways. Your commitment to work up to and on Election Day at the polls shows how strong our party can be.

We just wanted to give you a huge thank you and say we must continue to work for a better country. We’re grateful for all you’ve done and continue to do.

In unity,

Josh Throneburg and Nancy Damon
Co-chairs, Cville Dems

Have Campaign Yard Signs? Do This.

Posted on

The 2024 yard signs have served their purpose. Tim Kaine will be our Senator once again, and Gloria Witt for VA-05 and Kamala Harris and Tim Walz for the White House fought hard battles.

Some Cville Dems took signs to a metal recycling outfit, but we earned very little money from that sale. We recommend that you can take both sign wires and plastic sleeves to McIntire Recycling. The plastic signs can go into the plastic films dumpster, not far from the office. The metal signposts can go all the way to the dumpster (with stairs) on the right, for metals.

If it’s more convenient for you not to recycle on your own, please drop your signs off at Nancy Damon’s house at 2407 Jefferson Park Ave.
