#CADem19 #BlueWaveRolling
We do not place ourselves in the greatness of our Founders – but we do place ourselves in the urgency we face in securing our democracy.
#CADem19

They couldn’t have imagined how many, or how different we would be. But they knew we had to be one.
#CADem19 #BlueWaveRolling
The times have found us, each and every one of us, to have the courage and the strength to win.
