Christopher Krull:  For my birthday month, used Facebook to fundraise for RAICES and had friends donate $161.

Became co-chair of the Finance committee of the Omaha Area Sanctuary
Network, working to assist immigrants here in Nebraska.

RedRosa:  Busy week this week, so I've only been able to provide an additional one-time contribution to Bernie on top of my monthly donation.

Howard Berman:  I have running contributions to the Democratic Party;

Tom Cathcart:  Had surgery this week, so can't say I did a lot, but did write a grant application to try to get some money to local asylum-seekers. The problem here is particularly thorny. The preponderance of them are from the same indigenous tribe in Guatemala and speak neither Spanish nor English.

Charles Perkins:  1) volunteered to phone bank for Warren

2) watched debates, talked to my moderate friends who also watched the debates about the debates. Used these conversations as an opportunity to support Warren.

3) Resolved to look at polls less and focus more on supporting Warren because

4) Spent time staring at the polls wishing Warren ahead

5)Went to a breakfast on LGBTQ+ issues at the synagogue in Santa Barbara. I learned a lot about these issues wrt to Judaism, and I helped boost turnout.

Robert Paul Wolff:  Donated another $100 to Warren, made my usual small donation to Bernie, called Senators Burr and Tillis to urge them to get McConnell to bring Senate back to act on gun control, attended a North Williams Democratic Party gathering to canvas for volunteers [did not actually canvas], will go to an envelope stuffing party tomorrow called by the Chatham County Democratic Party
