Coffee with former State Sen. Daniel Biss
The Fair Tax is finally on the ballot!
Our Democratically controlled State Government has come up with a solid plan to get Illinois finances going in a better and fairer direction. There is a lot of misinformation coming from the other side and we want you to have the facts.
This November election is vital for our country, state and county; however, the Fair Tax is going to be at the top of the ballot and is just as important.
We have a good friend, former State Senator Daniel Biss, willing to explain it all to us at a special virtual coffee hosted by the Sun City Democrats on July 16th at 10:30 am.
RSVP to receive the Zoom link the day of the Coffee. Be sure to have your own coffee, donut, and any questions at the ready! You will be able to ask questions via the Zoom chat setting.
For more detail please contact Geri Levine at (g2a2l@aol.com) or District 6 Chair Cathy Johnson (district6@mchenrydems.org)
Tell a friend and we’ll see you there!
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m 64?

Hello Hampshirites and fellow supporters,
After the last three weeks, Hampshire has become a less than happy town. Ever since this movement has made way to the 60140, a large presence of hate has bubbled to the surface. This has had quite the detrimental impact to such a “tight knit community.” But that’s the issue. Hampshire not only lacks diversity, but somehow drives any diversity out of town. People of color do not feel safe or included inside the town. And since recent threats have been made to the BLM in Hampshire, this creates a need for people to finally come together and stand up for racial equality. Even people that usually like to watch from the sidelines. We’re asking for your help!! There is no time for silence.

When/Where/What ***UPDATE 7/9
2:30 PM – Gather at Henpeck Park / Veterans Park at IL-72&State St in Hampshire. We will have people from the community explaining their experiences during their time in Hampshire. We hope to create an understanding on why change is necessary and HOW to in a peaceful manner.
We will no longer be marching for the sake of safety.
People of color do not have much freedom to express themselves in Hampshire.
People of color do not feel safe to express themselves in Hampshire.
Hampshire has thrived on assimilation and compliance for too long.
The purpose of this protest is to be peaceful and create a lasting, public presence of support in this town. Supporters, let’s try to make Hampshire better than before.

Also please remember to bring water, masks and a whole lot of Whippur Pride. If weather does fail us that day, I will follow up with a rain date.
Join us on Saturday, July 25 from 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. for a virtual dance lesson and party!

segments!
Tickets are $25, and sponsorship opportunities are available. Please see the flyer below for more details.
