Sunday, July 27: Be A Big Part Of Team Walkinshaw's Big Day!
* 2 PM: Canvassing Kick-Off [[link removed]] - Join Team Walkinshaw for their special election canvass kickoff to help send James Walkinshaw to Congress! With just weeks until Election Day, every conversation we have at the doors can make the difference in this fast-moving race. We’re building a grassroots team of neighbors talking to neighbors—sharing James’s record of public service, his progressive vision, and the urgency of this moment.
* 4 PM: Fundraiser in Lake Braddock [[link removed]] - Join James Walkinshaw to build on the overwhelming support from June’s Firehouse Primary and take the fight straight to our MAGA opponent. He’s running to be another rubber stamp for Trump in Congress—pushing a dangerous agenda that threatens our rights, our federal workforce, and our democracy. We can’t afford to let that happen, and we need all hands on deck to keep Virginia’s 11th District blue on September 9th.

** Good Trouble Lives On: A Day of Action
Thursday, July 17
3:00 PM: In-Person in Alexandria
6:00 PM: Virtual
On July 17, the anniversary of Congressman John Lewis’s passing, People Power United is hosting a virtual event to honor his legacy and defend our rights and freedoms. As Trump and his allies push voter suppression bills like the SAVE Act and criminalize protest, we’re rising up in nonviolent resistance—because in America, the power belongs to the people. This isn’t just a rally. It’s a moral stand. It’s Good Trouble—alive and marching forward.

** May Nivar for HD-57 fundraiser featuring Rep. Ted Lieu
Wednesday, July 23 @ 7:00 PM
Address provided upon RSVP
Rep. Ted Lieu, Vice Chair of the House Democratic Caucus , and retired U.S. Air Force Reserve JAG officer, is scheduled to attend. May Nivar is an exceptional candidate who is primed to flip a seat from the Republicans in likely the most contested seat in the House of Delegates, VA-57, which was lost by only 715 votes in 2023. The district voted nine points toward Kamala Harris over Donald Trump, making this the most opportune pickup for Democrats and the most defended seat in Virginia. It will cost us a lot of money to compete here. Our Dems in NOVA should do everything we can to support her.
