June Meeting

 

Steve Preminger - Chair of the Santa Clara County Democratic Central Committe Executive Committee

The insightful and fascinating Steve Preminger, Chair of the Santa Clara County Democratic Party, will speak to us about building community and organizing Sunnyvale. This subject is particularly appropriate just now in Sunnyvale, where the progressives and moderates are battling arch-conservatives for control of the City Council. Progressives Jim Griffith and Gustav Larsson are being challenged by the likes of Tap Merrick, Andy Frazier. and Steve Hoffman, allies of Council Member Pat Meyering, who was recently censored by the Council for his outrageous attacks on other Council Members. Should any one of these arch-conservatives get elected, it is likely the Council would become much more conservative, and gridlock on the Council may ensue. Our Democratic candidates, Jim and Gustav, need all the help we can give them.

  
  Margaret Okozumi, our Vice-President of Political Activity, will speak to us about helping out our Democratic candidates for the City Council.  
  Jim Griffith and Gustav Larsson will speak to the Club on Sunnyvale issues; We will ask their campaign managers also to address the Club so that we can get accquainted with them.  
  Fellow members of the Club, Nandini Balakrishna and Don Denzel, will tell us about the status of gun legislation efforts in Sunnyvale.  
 
Special Message from the Club Board:
