Manassas & Manassas Park Cities Democratic Committee

MMPCDC’s dear friend and long-time co-chair, Cheryl Macias, passed away on October 5, after battling stage 4 lung cancer for almost a year.  Cheryl was indeed the best of us–tireless, conscientious, loving and dedicated to the max. She opened her home and her heart to so many of us and worked tirelessly as a canvasser, advocate, poll greeter, supporter, adviser, teacher, listener, researcher, and more than our grieving brains can…

#WorkersOverBillionaires is a national day of nonviolent action, this Labor Day, Monday, September 1, to respond to the attacks on working families by the Trump administration and to remind everyone that in America, the power lies with the people.

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies….
