    Chiriqui Progressives Hold Fall Festival and Wine Tasting.

    Democrats Abroad Panama in the Province of Chiriqui held an in person fall meeting with wine and appetizer tasting in Boquete on October 9. Due to much decreased Covid cases in the country and ability to have people together, about 50 vaccinated members of Chiriqui Progressives discussed plans for 2022 voter registration and get out the vote activities. In addition, everyone was able to sample three wines and related appetizer tastings, as well as listen to local musicians. It was a festive atmosphere for everyone. https://www.instagram.com/p/CU1TyxdA1DK/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

    Upcoming Events

    Friday, March 03, 2023 at 12:00 AM through March 31, 2023 Eastern Time (US & Canada)

    ERA Call to Action - Cake time

    The Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced
    in Congress in 1923 - 100 years ago!

    To commemorate that, Democrats Abroad is joining women across the U.S.
    holding birthday parties 
    in March – many on March 22
    the date in 1972 that Congress submitted the ERA to the states for ratification.

    Despite that we’ve met all the constitutional requirements, the ERA has not been published.

    The goal is to raise awareness that the ERA is still not officially in the US Constitution.

    So have a little party with a birthday cake or cupcakes in recognition that we are still waiting for the Equal Rights Amendment to be added to the US Constitution.  This can be a small gathering in you home, a large gathering, or simply part of an already planned meeting or event.   Take lots of photos and post on social media with hashtag #ERA100.
    Please share these flyers at the birthday party and with your family and friends:

    Equal Means Equal has created a "cookbook" of ideas and graphics for groups to leverage. Click here to access.

    For more details on the ERA 100th birthday party, listen to Shari Temple’s appearance on the DA Blue Cafe podcast.
