Local Power, National Impact: Cities on the Frontlines of Democracy

Join us on Sunday, March 30, 4-5:30 Via Zoom (register here)

With incessant attacks on our nation's democracy making daily headlines, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Many of our California cities, however, should also be making headlines. Cities are doing all they can to uphold democracy, and real change is happening at the local level—change that aligns with our values of inclusion, community, and equity. We are proud that some of our Leaguers have recently been elected to serve their cities, and they are stepping up to defend democracy, protect rights, and drive policy that ripples across the nation.

Join us on March 30 for a powerful conversation with three League members recently elected to local office:

  • Adena Ishii – Mayor of Berkeley

  • Lorrel Plimier – Piedmont City Council

  • Natalya Zernitskaya – Santa Monica City Council

They’ll share why local government is more important than ever, how they’re making a difference, and why strengthening democracy starts at the community level.

Tickets for this unique event are only $10. Get tickets and learn more!
