No Excuses: Fargo, ND Meeting

No-Excuses_header-logo

conradAs part of the No Excuses campaign I scheduled an in-district meeting for two of our members in Fargo.  on Monday, David and Bernie met with two of Senator Conrad’s staff, so I wanted to share David’s feedback.  From David: “We asked for the Senator's support in repealing DOMA and “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”  The staffers seemed genuinely glad to talk with us and were in no hurry to be done.  They also thanked us for coming in to talk in a nice way - I guess that they get yelled at a lot.” If you haven’t submitted your request for a meeting during the August recess take a moment to visit the No Excuses toolkit.
