What’s at stake? What can we do to win?
with Zoe Lofgren, Member of Congress

RESCHEDULED DATE
Sunday, June 9, 2:00 – 3:30pm
Mountain View Senior Center
266 Escuela Ave, Mountain View, CA 94040

Join us on June 9 to hear the inside scoop from Member of Congress Zoe Lofgren. Her leadership and expertise make her uniquely positioned to share:

1. What will happen if Trump wins
2. The danger of Project 2025, the Trump transition plan to widely dismantle and reshape government
3. Key races and the strategy to win back the House
4. What we can do to help safeguard our democracy

Zoe Lofgren brings exceptional insights—she represents the California 18th district, serves on the House Judiciary Committee, chairs the 46-member California Democratic Congressional Delegation, served on the January 6th Select Committee investigating the insurrection, and was a House manager for the 2020 impeachment trial.

We look forward to a lively discussion and Q&A. Enjoy appetizers and desserts with your friends and fellow volunteers and learn about meaningful volunteer opportunities for 2024. Also, hear about the DVC’s planned Silicon Valley HQ to host volunteers and the Biden campaign, as well as some of the strategic races we will support, including Adam Gray (CA-13) and Rudy Salas (CA-22).

We hope to see you on June 9!

Donations optional (but gratefully received) – we want to see all of you at this event! Please RSVP here: secure.actblue.com/donate/dvc-zoe-lofgren-2024
