So here's the thing about this stretch of the campaign: it asks a lot of us. Before the ballots drop and things get even busier, let's pause. Not to organize. Not to strategize. Just to be together.

Join the our North County progressives community for a TGIF hangout at Emily's & John's: the Progressives Power Up Potluck. This one's for everybody, from candidates to volunteers to the friends and family who keep us all going. And to be clear, this isn't a campaign event. Leave the talking points at home. This one's just about connection, joy, and each other.

Bring your whole self, a friend or two, and something to share: a dish you love, something for the grill, or whatever looked good at the store. As long as there's enough to go around, you're covered. We've got the drinks, the plates, and the cutlery.

Got a refillable water bottle? Bring it along.

RSVP so we know how much room (and grill space) to plan for. Let's renew, recharge, and just be together before what's next.
