Happy New Year! It's been one year since President Biden was inaugurated. We had a lot of changes in 2021 and there is still lot of work to be done to get the change we need and action on climate change.

I want to thank my two immediate predecessors, Rosa Foyle and Jese Alamogordo for all their work. We still have a lot of work to do in this midterm year. Our chapter has a lot of plans for 2022. Our next meeting is Tuesday, 25 January at 7:30 pm CET and we hope you join us. We will discuss our plans for the next year and we really need your help. There are lots of simple opportunities to volunteer and  help get out the vote. Of course, requesting your absentee is the first and easiest thing you can do to help.

If you are on Facebook, please like our Facebook page.  Also, if you use WhatsApp, consider joining our group.

I'm ready to get work, defend our democracy, and win the 2022 midterms and I hope you are too!

Please take a look at the information below. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at [email protected]democratsabroad.de

Thank you for your time and your support,

Angela Fobbs
Chapter Chair, Wiesbaden-Mainz

The Wiesbaden/Mainz Chapter is very pleased to collaborate with the newly formed DA Germany Climate Caucus to promote their launch event, happening June 9th 7pm CET. We in Wiesbaden/Mainz have several members in this nascent group and hope it will have a bright future!

Most of my heroes are women. My mother, an artist and writer, possesses the most adventurous, curious and brilliant mind I've ever known and inspires me unendingly as I travel through life. My wife, a professional violist, is easily one of the boldest, most exciting musicians I've had the pleasure to hear perform live; she gives me the drive to achieve my best in my own musical career. Among those who influence me from afar are the likes of Greta Thunberg, Malala Yousafzai, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Cara Santa Maria. Women have had an unequal effect on the person I am today, and it's high time they are no longer treated unequally in our otherwise modern country. Equal treatment is the least we can ask for and we should settle for no less. Let us delay no longer. Ratify the Equal Rights Amendment immediately! Oklahoma voter, German resident.
