A unified left, left-leaning and anti-maga movement can change the political landscape of our rural towns. That’s why we are here.

Want healthcare? Funded schools? Basic human rights? So do we.

No purity tests, no gatekeeping; just action, advocacy and support.

Today seems like a beautiful day to call your reps and remind them to HOLD THE LINE and not give into the fascist agenda!!

Sen Mark Warner: 202-224-2023
Sen Tim Kaine: 202-224-4024

We have a voice. They’re our reps because they REPRESENT US! Use your voice.

We cannot thank the Culpeper PD enough for all they did to ensure our established safety plan was implemented last week.

Help us show our appreciation with a note or a baked good!

I had a great time meeting the @piedmontpersisters.bsky.social in Yowell Meadow Park today for talking, walking, and chalking.
Highly recommend!
