Message from the Chair Happy Pesach to those who observe this profoundly important Jewish holiday. Today is the first night of eight nights of observance for Pesach. The holiday focuses on the story of the Jews and their exodus from Egypt into the desert. They were led by Moses and wandered for forty years before settling in the “promised land” which is Israel. During these eight days there are also strictures about what can be eaten with mainly no leavening in edible items. The importance of this holiday for Jews is comparable to the importance of Christmas/Easter for Christians. Family and friends gather together to celebrate, enjoying food, drink and each other’s company. It is a holiday that I look forward to every year. It was exciting to see all the crowds and read about the No Kings Day of protest! It is truly disgusting that we have such a horrible person in the White House. May we get a Democratic majority so we can stop some of the outrageous behavior that comes out of Washington, D.C. Reminders: 1) Our 2026 State Democratic Convention will be held in Spokane, WA on June 19th-21st, 2026! All Democrats are welcome to attend. You do not need to be an elected official, an elected or appointed official from your LD or county organization to attend the convention. It’s a great way to meet others from the different parts of the state and have good, in-depth discussions on the issues of the day. Broaden your horizons and get to the other side of the state! 2) Kathy Canderle is the chair of the 23rd LD state delegation. She needs to know the top issues for the state convention and possible resolutions. Contact her with your thoughts, ideas. 3) We will not be able to get into the library meeting room until 7 pm. AARP is doing its volunteer tax help until then.4) On a completely different note, please remember to bring donations of food and money to our next LD meeting on March 26. Our neighbors and food banks need our help to provide for themselves and others. I hope to see you there! Val Chair, 23rd LD Democrats |
