Thank you Sen. Gadkar-Wilcox for standing with the voters of Bridgeport. We deserve a accountability and a functioning democracy. And we need our local elected officials who care about voting rights and fair elections to step up!

A terrible thing happened in the Oval Office today when Pres Zelensky was confronted-dare we say ambushed-by Vance & then Trump.
PLEASE take 5 mins *now*. Call your Senators+your Rep, even though youβll have to leave a voice message.
