The day after last week’s Politics Done Right, I flew to Washington DC to attend Move to Amend‘s National Leadership summit. While protests and rallies like Democracy Spring are great, much more is needed. I will address this in the blog of the week.
Later on, David Cobb, spokesperson for Move to Amend will talk about the event and where we need to go relative to movements that get us on the road to real progress.
