What are your priority issues?

What are your priority issues?  My friend Kara just asked the following in our SPRINGVILLE ACTION newsletter, yes friends you too can subscribe and get updates – tis not only Springville/Town of Concord related content!

Eeek – of course, All The Issues! (Of course, but…my focus?)

Focus – not my strong point. But I tried to attempt a macro list including my main focus points. Which means I tried to make 27 issues into 3 – with you know, a little additional information.

1. Civil & Human Rights

• Bodily Autonomy & Reproductive Justice
• LGBTQ+
• Disability

2. Health & Economic Justice

• Universal Healthcare & Public Health
• Medicare, Medicaid, & Social Security
• Food & Economic Security

3. Democracy & Public Access

• Voting Rights
• Defending Intellectual Freedom
• Protecting Access to Banned Books & Stopping Censorship

YOUR TURN – take the time, write it out.
