Season’s Greetings and Happy New Year, Fellow 14th District Democrats!
| Greetings, Democrats! As we continue our holiday celebrations and the 2018 year draws to a close, I want to thank you again for all of your hard work. Your voting, your campaigning, your organizing, your attending, your contributions, your candidacies made the difference in Michigan. In a few days time, we will have a Democratic Governor, a Democratic Lieutenant Governor, a Democratic Secretary of State, a Democratic Attorney General, a Democratic-majority State Board of Education, and Democratic-majorities on the Wayne State University, Michigan State University, and University of Michigan boards. We have five more Democrats in the State Senate and five more Democrats in the State House — but we need to work toward Democratic legislative majorities at long last. For the first time in forty years, Democrats now even have a majority on the Oakland County Commission! As we reflect on the big wins we helped build this year, the 2020 Presidential Election and many important statewide and local races loom on the horizon. I’m committed to continue organizing throughout Wayne and Oakland counties and I hope you’ll continue to join me in that effort through the 14th District Democrats. Here are a reminder of upcoming Democratic activities in the new year: Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II, and Statewide Officers, Swearing-In at Lansing State Capitol January 1st It’s happening on Tuesday, January 1st with the program beginning at 10:30 a.m. The event will take place outdoors on the Capitol Lawn in Lansing, so dress for the weather.
