GDW EVENT ALERT: Greater Philadelphia Congressional Academy Day on Saturday, September 24.

By Gloria DULAN-Wilson

Hello All:

On the eve of the return of the Congressional Black Caucus to in person for the first time since Covid, Philadelphia legislators and elected officials are hosting a Greater Philadelphia Congressional Academy Day on Saturday, September 24.  

This is an opportunity to meet your representatives, learn about issues confronting us locally and nationally, and make recommendations of your own about how some of the issues they are confronting might be resolved.  

I'm sure I don't need to tell you how important it is to be in communication with your elected officials on a continuous basis.  They work in our behalf; but won't know what we need if we don't tell them of our concerns. 

 

 

Sadly, many of us don't know who our representatives are on a local, state and national level - and don't know who to turn to when we have issues.  

We are in a crucial election year - the 2022 MIDTERM ELECTIONS ARE THE MOST PIVOTAL EVER.  The stakes are extremely high, because the very democracy of our country is on the chopping block if we don't get it right.  It's important to know who is on the frontline standing for us.  These representatives don't just show up when there is an election - their responsibilities are year round - practically 24/7/365.  

Now is the time to touch base with them and make sure you are in communication.

So make it your business to be there:

Now, while I have your attention, I want to make sure I put this on your consciousness 

Clearly, I'm not non-partisan - that's the blessings of this blog - I can make informed choices and recommendations.  It is the policy of EBN (ECLECTICALLY BLACK NEWS) to keep you as informed as possible about issues that affect you/us  as Black People.

That said, this is where EBN is with Pennsylvania's midterm  candidates, and those in other states who are running to rid this country of   PTSD Post-T-rump Traumatic Stress Disorder

In 2016, Americans were hoodwinked, lied to and betrayed by the repuglycons and T-rump, resulting in 4+years of the worst Presidential administration in the history of this country.  Under his watch racism, lies, privation have elevated exponentially.  Education has been sabotaged, our health has been compromised; children have been separated from their parents and put into concentration camps; the US has suffered alienation from friendly countries, while the ersatz president curried relationships with such enemies as Russia, North Korea, Red China. 2016 was never a fair and honest election, ballots were tampered with; and T-rump should never have ever occupied the office of the Presidency, and most definitely  must not be allowed to continue stirrinf up hostilities among American citizens.   Violations of women's rights,  voters rights, health rights, diverting the US mail in order to avoid free and fair vote by mail options for all Americans; placing bogus or corrupt judges on the bench are just some of the things we have suffered under the T-rump administration.  The attempt to establish a dictatorship by running such candidates as Oz and Mastriano must be stopped.

THIS MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN - EVER! It is important that we know, and are clear about our rights and responsibilities as Americans so we don't have a repeat of this travesty in the future.  WE must know as much about the candidates and elected officials as we do about sports figures, artists, superstars, movie stars, etc.

 

Y/OUR MIDTERM VOTES MATTER -

 Y/OUR MIDTERM VOTES MATTER!

That said, I look forward to seeing you Saturday at the First Ever Philadelphia Congressional Academy Day - 

NOW THAT YOU KNOW

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

 Stay Blessed &
