The Cville Dems officers are starting to meet with precinct chairs to get to know everyone a bit better. Nancy, Dashad, Mary Ann and John met last Friday with Johnson Co-Chair Carrie Schaeffer, Carver Co-Chair Kathryn Laughon, and Key Rec Co-Chairs Barbara Shenefield and Erin Corbett at Cville Coffee. Views were shared about priorities, tactics, and ideas (as well as some colorful stories of how they all got involved with the Dems!). Carrie‘s idea of having informal backyard get-togethers in each precinct made quite an impression!
Denouncing Russian Invasion of Ukraine
The executive committee of the Charlottesville Democrats strongly denounces the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We stand with the Ukrainian people in their resistance to this aggression, and we support both President Biden’s support of the Ukrainian military defense and his economic and diplomatic pressure on Russia.
