Meeting Tuesday 1 July

Written by: Kevin Sharkey on Jun 27, 2008 12:54 PM EDT

Linked to groups: Brevard Workers for Democracy, Democracy for Brevard North

To all DFA members of Brevard Workers for Democracy and North Brevard DFA

I as organizer of the BWD received the below e-mail. I want to honestly respond to the DFA. Do we have or do we want to have DFA units in Brevard county? I tried early on to have a first meeting, which was an unqualified disaster 0 for 65. After such a dis hearting responds, my interest wanned, I have attended DFA training in Orlando and have respect for the organization. The DFA is the organization that can hold the Democratic party 's feet to the fire when it drifts away from the true liberal and progressive values that I believe Democrats stand for. As secretary to the Brevard Democratic executive committee, would I advocate for a group hostile to the DEC? For both organization have the same progressive goals and DFA's can be the vessel that allows independent, political agnostics and other to work for change.

I am calling a meeting of both DFA for 1 July, Tuesday 7pm at the Brevard DEC office 1261 W. King St Cocoa. The agenda is self evident, do we continue or fold? Do we merge? If we continue, elect leadership and set a meeting date. I apologize if this post is harsh sounding, but I believe that it needs to be send. You can contact me at sharkeykevin.yahoo.com or thru the DFA link.

Respectfully submitted

Hi,

My name is Tegan Rymer and I'm working over at DFA's Burlington H Q's for the summer. We are putting together a packet of materials, including bumper stickers, buttons, and postcards for your group to fill out at your next meet up. However, we do need to know if Brevard Workers for Democracy is still active, what day your group meets and what address to send the packet to. Or if you meet up with another group who is meeting in July, please let me know that as well. Feel free to either email me back or give me a call, the contact information is listed below.

Thanks,
Tegan Rymer
Democracy for America
