Progressive Holiday Parties and Peace Mandate

As Christmas and Chanukah near, every non-profit has a holiday party to attend. By the end of the season, I've had my fill of h'or d'erves from Costco platters, and free glasses of tasty wine on a nightly basis. One notable party was the holiday party that the new Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, hosted at the Fairmont hotel in SF.


After the election we breathed a sigh of relief, reconnected with the grassroots organizers, and developed the Mandate for Peace campaign to ensure that the new Congress would take immediate action to bring our troops home. We were dismayed that Iraq wasn't even mentioned in the agenda for the first 100 hours of Congress.
