Local politics can be very receptive to public voices. Few people ever just show up at meetings. Showing up is how a minority of minority (maga) took over so many local positions. And showing up and speaking out is how we take back that power.
Rep. Zooey Zephyr - My Wife - just gave an incredible speech against a drag ban in Montana. It was so strong that a Republican rose to speak passionately against the bill, chastising the sponsor.
The drag ban dies in Montana, flips 10+ Republican votes!
This is the power of representation.
