The current administration needs to end before it starts to destroy this nation.

In 2018 33 Senators and all 435 seats in the house are up for reelection.
After witnessing the march yesterday I firmly believe we can mobilize and win enough seats.
We have given up too many seats by staying home during the midterms.
And we cannot wait for 2020. I'm sick of reading about the pathetic turnout by the Dem.s during the of year elections.
Only massive turnout will overcome Gerrymandering and the many anti voter laws.

One thing everyone of Us can do is insure that all our own are properly registered for 2018 and beyond.

Really living up to your Avatar today aren't we.
Lets see if we can make these seats less vulnerable.
