A brief thread and recap of our Whose House? #OurHouse rally to celebrate a #HappyBlueYear for 2019.

First off - thank you @IndivisibleTeam for getting the signs to us on short notice and over the holidays!

Kudos to Jed P and Linda G for organizing this event - getting speakers, arranging logistics, and generally setting the stage so people could show up and speak.

Of course, we had a signed Thank You card and (of course) a To Do list for our most excellent Congressman, @tedlieu (graciously accepted by @nicolasdr8)

A pair of our SoCal organizers from Indivisible National helped us out (thanks, @chloestryker and @zacharie_boi ❤️)

Thanks to Sara Deen of @intrfthalliance for reminder of how much work remains to stitch up our the diverse fabric of peoples and beliefs that truly defines America.

Wayne Liebman of @swingsocalleft (and one of our Indivisibles, too!) reminded us that swinging 5 (!) SoCal districts from red to blue seemed like a crazy pipe dream just two years ago.

And thanks to our other speakers, @MicheSutter of @MOVI_Coalition, @sherryannelear of @350 / @SoCalClimate350 / @SoCal350 / @350Action, and @LieberSolutions of @sunrisemvmt. We'll try to post their remarks later on this thread.

Finally, thanks to our #IndivisibleCoalition partners, @IndivisibleCA37, @IndivisibleCA43, @indivisible_sb, and Beach Cities.

Oh, yeah, and then we held a second rally @RepKarenBass's office (it's a block away - and no, we didn't drive). #HappyBlueYear in #OurHouse!
