Please accept my apologies for the late notification. Events have conspired with my family and me to keep me from informing you about Thursday's rally to claw back our democracy.
President Obama has been hobnobbing with the monied bunch telling them to get off their duffs and scream their outrage at what is happening in this country. Let's please heed his words "Everyone can do something" Bring your signs and voices to Sombrero Beach Road and Overseas on Thursday-7-17 from 5:00-6:30. Phyllis Kuykendall will be there with the signs in her truck.
Rise Up,
Laurie
