THANK YOU!     Last Friday's DFA SiCKO Movie Night was awesome! More than 60 people came, including members from Hunterdon, Somerset, Mercer & Middlesex DFA's. Plenty of you brought family, friends & neighbors, and we partied after the movie over great Chinese food at Ya-Ya-Noodles.

Many of you were ready to stand with SEIU union members the next day as their strike began at a nearby nursing home over health insurance for their members. Great news: SEIU pressure drove the owners back to the bargaining table - strike averted!

If you haven't seen SiCKO yet, we missed you Friday, but go see it now. I laughed, and laughed, cried a lot, and laughed some more. It's great. 

Tonight's informal plans to meet at the North Branch Park fireworks look doubtful, as thunderstorms threaten. And Friendly Grounds is closed tonight.

So .... we will see you at Wednesday, August 1 at 7pm in Friendly Grounds Coffee as we continue our Conversations With Statehouse Progressives series, plus other surprises. 

Meanwhile ....  

Have you voted in our impeachment poll?  

Nationwide Democratic Organizing Day - Saturday, July 28 (local details TBA)

DFA at the Beach is Saturday, Aug. 4 - sand, sun & politics! woo hoo!

Hunterdon 4-H Fair - Aug. 22-26 (let me know if you want to help the Dems staff their tent - fun!)

Save the date - Sept. 6-8 - NJ State Democratic Conference in Atlantic City
